stm class: Fix unlocking braino in the error path
If an illegal attempt is made to unlink stm source device from an stm device, the stm device's link spinlock mistakenly remains locked. While this really shouldn't happen (there's a warning in place), the locking should remain in order so that we can still recover from this situation if it indeed does happen. This patch unifies the unlocking in the exit path of __stm_source_link_drop() to fix this.
