OK. Got it. I guess I need to restructure. And BTW, This was a code fragment
only, the spinlock gets released when -EFAULT is called -- was just an example.

Unless you have redefined EFAULT in some strange and hideous way, it is
not "called" and doesn't free the spinlock. EFAULT is defined as a
literal integer, so you're just returning a number without freeing the
spinlock.
If you have redefined EFAULT to a macro function call or whatever, then
don't do that, it's REALLY horrible coding practice.
