[PATCH v2 4/6] module/dups: Use scope-based cleanup helpers

From: Petr Pavlu <petr.pavlu@suse.com>
Date: 2026-07-23 08:26:45
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: module support, the rest · Maintainers: Luis Chamberlain, Petr Pavlu, Daniel Gomez, Sami Tolvanen, Linus Torvalds

Use scope-based cleanup helpers for kmod_dup_mutex and kmod_req to shorten
the code and to clarify where the lock is taken in
kmod_dup_request_exists_wait().
