Sparse reports a warning at lec_seq_stop()
warning: context imbalance in lec_seq_stop() - unexpected unlock
The root cause is the missing annotation at lec_seq_stop()
The __release() annotation inside lec_seq_stop()
tells only Sparse to shutdown the warning
Add the missing __releases(&state->locked->lec_arp_lock)
Add __release(&state->locked->lec_arp_lock) annotation
