The function rbus_open has unreachable code after the return statement. The rbus_unregisterObj cleanup code can never be executed because it comes after 'return RBUS_ERROR_SUCCESS'. This fix adds a new error label 'exit_error3' and changes the goto statement to jump to this label instead of exit_error2, making the cleanup code reachable. Coverity: UNREACHABLE CWE-561: Dead Code
