I have edited the patch below quite a bit to show where I see a problem.

Note that the old code checks the return code of
clear_sst_fwhub_block_lock(), but the new code ignores the return code
completely. At the very least, I'd expect the code to complain loudly.
Ideal would be to try to unlock all even if unlock fails for one or
more. Basically, complain for each failed unlock, but continue and
return 0 only if all unlocks were sucessful.
With that addressed and a successful compile test, the patch is
Acked-by: Carl-Daniel Hailfinger <[email protected]>
