How about this:

static ssize_t vfio_ap_mdev_ioctl(struct mdev_device *mdev,
                     unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)
{
     int ret = 0;
     struct ap_matrix_mdev *matrix_mdev;

     ...
     case VFIO_DEVICE_RESET:
         matrix_mdev = mdev_get_drvdata(mdev);
         WARN(!matrix_mdev, "Driver data missing from mdev!!");

         if (matrix_mdev) {
             /*
              * If the KVM pointer is in the process of being set, wait 
until
              * the process has completed.
              */
             wait_event_cmd(matrix_mdev->wait_for_kvm,
                        matrix_mdev->kvm_busy == false,
mutex_unlock(&matrix_dev->lock),
mutex_lock(&matrix_dev->lock));

             ret = vfio_ap_mdev_reset_queues(mdev);
         }
         break;
     ...

     return ret;
}
