[PATCH v3 1/8] Input: synaptics-rmi4: Use of_get_child_by_name() instead of of_find_node_by_name()

From: Andrew Duggan <hidden>
Date: 2016-07-14 06:08:24
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: input (keyboard, mouse, joystick, touchscreen) drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Dmitry Torokhov, Linus Torvalds

Calling of_find_node_by_name() assumes that the caller has incremented
the refcount of the of_node being passed in. Currently, the caller is
not incrementing the refcount of the of_node which results in the node
being prematurely freed when of_find_node_by_name() calls of_node_put()
on it. Instead use of_get_child_by_name() which does not call put on the
of_node.
