Subject: [PATCH] uniform cdrom: fix mutex unlocking in /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info file

If the last if condition passes the cdrom_mutex mutex will not be unlocked.
This patch fixes this and also removes the unnecessary doit label that was only invoked by the done label.

Thanks.

Confused. There is no way in which cdrom_sysctl_info() can forget to
unlock cdrom_mutex.

Ok, I had misread the code then, one of the reasons I don't like goto
labels, but that's a different story.

Regarding cdrom_sysctl_info(), I have noticed in several netbooks
(haven't
looked in other machines with no cdrom drive) that the
/proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info file shows no values for the listed entries,
ie:

CD-ROM information, Id: cdrom.c 3.20 2003/12/17

drive name:
drive speed:
drive # of slots:
Can close tray:
Can open tray:
...

Now, is this expected behavior? If not, should it be changed to
something
more descriptive? Perhaps it would affect user space applications that
read
the file?

Thanks,
Davidlohr

It works for me.

Does your kernel build have CONFIG_SYSCTL=n? If so, then all that code
is disabled. That seems a bit bogus to me and perhaps we should enable
at least some of that code by CONFIG_PROCFS instead.
