Subject: [PATCH 1/2] [IrDA] Fix RCU lock pairing on error path

From: Samuel Ortiz <[email-masked]>

Hi Dave,

irlan_client_discovery_indication calls rcu_read_lock and rcu_read_unlock, but
returns without unlocking in an error case.  Fix that by replacing the return
with a goto so that the rcu_read_unlock always gets executed.
