commit c7bf1fb7ddca331780b9a733ae308737b39f1ad4 upstream.
Commit e5e884b42639 ("libertas: Fix two buffer overflows at parsing bss descriptor") introduced a bounds check on the number of supplied rates to lbs_ibss_join_existing().
Unfortunately, it introduced a return path from within a RCU read side critical section without a corresponding rcu_read_unlock(). Fix this.
