Smatch complains about this function: drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/eswitch.c:2000 mlx5_esw_unlock() warn: inconsistent returns '&esw->mode_lock'. Before commit ec2fa47d7b98 ("net/mlx5: Lag, use lag lock") there used to be a matching mlx5_esw_lock() function and the lock and unlock functions were symmetric. But now we take the lock unconditionally and must unlock unconditionally as well. As near as I can tell this is dead code and can just be deleted.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
