From 1173ff09b9c57be8248427b7be161f7599dccd6b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Hocko Date: Tue, 19 May 2015 09:07:27 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] watchdog: fix double lock in watchdog_nmi_enable_all Commit ab992dc38f9a ("watchdog: Fix merge 'conflict'") has introduced an obvious deadlock because of a typo. watchdog_proc_mutex should be unlocked on exit. Thanks to Miroslav Benes who was staring at the code with me and noticed this.
