Any idea what the new sparse "context imbalance" warnings are?  Is
this a bug in sparse?

The functions it is complaining about don't seem to have a "context
imbalance" see e.g.the one near line 134 of fs/cifs/cifssmb.c

static void mark_open_files_invalid(struct cifsTconInfo *pTcon)
{
        struct cifsFileInfo *open_file = NULL;
        struct list_head *tmp;
        struct list_head *tmp1;

/* list all files open on tree connection and mark them invalid */
        write_lock(&GlobalSMBSeslock);
        list_for_each_safe(tmp, tmp1, &pTcon->openFileList) {
                open_file = list_entry(tmp, struct cifsFileInfo, tlist);
                if (open_file)
                        open_file->invalidHandle = true;
        }
        write_unlock(&GlobalSMBSeslock);
}
