BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1015836

As pointed out by Ben Hutchings, after commit 720bb6436, the lock was
being taken and not released when an rc_dev has a NULL raw device.

Commit 720bb6436 missed an mutex_unlock on exit, thanks to Ben Hutchings
for pointing that out. Marked as "SAUCE" since it's not upstream yet,
but it should be included upstream.
