[PATCH 3/6] powerpc/powernv: add missing of_node_put

From: Julia Lawall <hidden>
Date: 2015-11-20 20:45:19
Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Linus Torvalds

for_each_compatible_node performs an of_node_get on each iteration, so
a break out of the loop requires an of_node_put.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that fixes this problem is as
follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr):

// <smpl>
@@
local idexpression n;
expression e;
@@

 for_each_compatible_node(n,...) {
   ...
(
   of_node_put(n);
|
   e = n
|
+  of_node_put(n);
?  break;
)
   ...
 }
... when != n
// </smpl>
