    of/unittest: fix infinite loop in of_unittest_destroy_tracked_overlays()

    of_overlay_destroy() can return `-ENODEV' error code once it
    failed to find the requested overlay in `ov_idr'. However,
    of_unittest_destroy_tracked_overlays() does not handle this
    error code correctly and continues to call of_overlay_destroy()
    on the 'missing' overlay over and over again. This results in
    a printk flood

hm, frankly... I see no connection.

this doesn't look like 'of/unittest' related problem to me.
a NULL deref in perf_prepare_sample(). hm.
