Aren't we leaking np here? I think we need of_node_put() after
of_get_next_child() to make sure the reference to the "thermal-zones"
node is properly released.
No, we will not leak np here. Because the
for_each_available_child_of_node will call
of_get_next_available_child(), which will call of_node_put(prev) to
decrease refcount of the prev node. So we just need to of_node_put the
last node after break from this for block.
Okay, looks like I misinterpreted what you were doing there. I thought
that for_each_available_child_of_node() took the child as first argument
and the parent as second and therefore np would be overwritten by the
first assignment in the macro.

But looking at this more closely I think there's something else wrong
here. for_each_available_child_of_node() is defined as:

	for_each_available_child_of_node(parent, child)

so in the above, np will be the parent and sensor_np the child. Why do
you have to do

	sensor_np = of_get_next_child(np, NULL);

? That's already done as part of the loop in the macro, right? So does
that not mean we get two references and we leak the first one? Can the
above not simply been dropped?
It's so sorry, it's my mistake, we should remove this line, it was my
develop code, forgot to remove it.
Will fix it in next version.

Thanks.
