From a2f054c10bef0b54600ec9cb776508443e941343 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jacob Keller Date: Mon, 10 Jul 2023 13:41:27 -0700 Subject: iavf: fix potential deadlock on allocation failure In iavf_adminq_task(), if kzalloc() fails to allocate the event.msg_buf, the function will exit without releasing the adapter->crit_lock. This is unlikely, but if it happens, the next access to that mutex will deadlock. Fix this by moving the unlock to the end of the function, and adding a new label to allow jumping to the unlock portion of the function exit flow.
