In opal_powercap_init(), of_find_compatible_node() will return
a node pointer with refcount incremented. We should use of_node_put()
in fail path or when it is not used anymore.
Besides, for_each_child_of_node() will automatically *inc* and *dec*
refcount during iteration. However, we should add the of_node_put()
if there is a break.
Hi,
I'm not sure that your patch is right here. Because of this *inc* and
*dec* things, do we still need to of_node_put(powercap) once we have
entered for_each_child_of_node?
I think that this reference will be released on the first iteration of
the loop.
Maybe of_node_put(powercap) should be duplicated everywhere it is
relevant and removed from the error handling path?
Or an additional reference should be taken before the loop?
Or adding a new label with "powercap = NULL" and branching there when
needed?
