3.19.8-ckt10 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me 
know.

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

From: Adam Richter <[email protected]>

commit 30730c7f5943b3beace1e29f7f1476e05de3da14 upstream.

In Linux 4.3-rc5, there is an error case in drm_dp_get_branch_device
that returns without releasing mgr->lock, resulting a spew of kernel
messages about a kernel work function possibly having leaked a mutex
and presumably more serious adverse consequences later.  This patch
changes the error to "goto out" to unlock the mutex before returning.

[airlied: grabbed from drm-next as it fixes something we've seen]
