[PATCH 01/23] mfd: tps6586x: fix OF node refcount

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <hidden>
Date: 2026-05-21 08:37:11
Also in: dri-devel, driver-core, imx, intel-xe, linux-arm-msm, linux-devicetree, linux-i2c, linux-iommu, linux-mips, linux-pm, linux-sound, linux-usb, lkml, netdev, platform-driver-x86, stable
Subsystem: multifunction devices (mfd), the rest · Maintainers: Lee Jones, Linus Torvalds

Platform devices created with platform_device_alloc() call
platform_device_release() when the last reference to the device's
kobject is dropped. This function calls of_node_put() unconditionally.
This works fine for devices created with platform_device_register_full()
but users of the split approach (platform_device_alloc() +
platform_device_add()) must bump the reference of the of_node they
assign manually. Add the missing call to of_node_get().
