Ingo hit some BUG_ONs that were probably caused by these missing unlocks
causing an unbalance.  He couldn't reproduce the bug reliably, so it's
unknown that it's definitly fixing the problem he hit, but it's a fairly
good chance, and this fixes an obvious bug.

[ Dave: "Ingo followed up that he hit some lockdep related output with
         this applied, so it may not be right.  I'll look at it after
         xmas if no-one has it figured out before then."
  Akpm: "It looks pretty correct to me though." ]
