staging: unisys: remove redundant unlocks of visornic_devdata.priv_lock

Browse source

These redundant unlocks of visornic_devdata.priv_lock would result in
the RHEL 7.2 guests hanging during service partition recovery testing.

__Testing__

* An scp of a large file was started from a remote host TO the RHEL 7.2
  Linux guest.

* During the scp transfer, s-Par service partition recovery was forced
  twice. After each occasion, I verified that the guest recovered
  completely (all s-Par guest devices), and that the file transfer
  resumed.

* Within the RHEL 7.2 guest environment, copied the large file to
  another location in the local filesystem.

* During the copy, s-Par service partition recovery was again forced
  twice. After each occasion, I verified that the guest recovered
  completely (all s-Par guest devices), and that the copy resumed.

* An scp of the new copy of the large file was started FROM the RHEL 7.2
  guest to a remote host.

* During the scp transfer, s-Par service partition recovery was forced
  twice. After each occasion, I verified that the guest recovered
  completely (all s-Par guest devices), and that the file transfer
  resumed.

* Used cmp to verify that the large file had successfully survived the
  round-trip without becoming corrupted.
