The pd pointer is stored in the line above, and released later in
put_special_pds().
special_pds[num_special_pds].type = type;
num_special_pds++;
+ of_node_put(pd);
Hence it must not be released here, as that would cause a double release
when put_special_pds() is executed.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
