There was a lock release before exiting, so remove the unreasonable unlock.

The fix looks good to me. However, I found another issue in this function.

In the for-loop after the 'read_failure' label, the condition
'(bh == NULL) && flags includes OCFS2_BH_READAHEAD' is missing.
When this contidion is true, this for-loop will call ocfs2_set_buffer_uptodate(ci, bh),
which then triggers a NULL pointer access error.

If you agree with my analysis, please add the new fix and send a v2 patch.

Thanks,
Heming

I agree with your analysis conclusion, but this is not the same issue
as the current one, so I will split it into two patches. 
The first patch fixes the unbalanced lock issue, and the second patch will
be used to fix the UAF problem of BH.

BR,
