3.16.55-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

commit 4564b187c16327045d87596e8980c65ba7b84c50 upstream.

Evidently I introduced a locking bug in my change here,
the nla_put_failure sometimes needs to unlock. Fix it.

Fixes: 44905265bc15 ("nl80211: don't expose wdev->ssid for most interfaces")
