[PATCH v3 03/18] of: overlay: add missing of_node_get() in __of_attach_node_sysfs
From: <hidden>
Date: 2018-10-15 00:26:06
Also in:
linux-fpga, linuxppc-dev, lkml
Subsystem:
open firmware and flattened device tree, the rest · Maintainers:
Rob Herring, Saravana Kannan, Linus Torvalds
From: Frank Rowand <redacted> There is a matching of_node_put() in __of_detach_node_sysfs() Remove misleading comment from function header comment for of_detach_node(). This patch may result in memory leaks from code that directly calls the dynamic node add and delete functions directly instead of using changesets.
