Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description A lock handling error has been fixed in the Linux kernel's Nouveau driver. The issue was a missing unlock in the gf100 gr chan new() function. When the call to gf100 grctx generate() fails, the code now unlocks gr->fecs.mutex before returning the error. This fix resolves a smatch warning regarding inconsistent returns.
