[PATCH 2/2] char: fix possible double-unlock in esp.c

From: Harvey Harrison
Date: Fri Feb 22 2008 - 12:34:45 EST


Hitting either of the break statements in the while loop would cause
a double-unlock of info->lock. Add an out label and goto instead of
break to skip the unlock in those cases.

Noticed by sparse:
drivers/char/esp.c:2042:2: warning: context imbalance in 'rs_wait_until_sent' - unexpected unlock
