[PATCH net-next v2] net: stmmac: platform: use scoped child loops in stmmac_mtl_setup()

From: Linkai Gong <hidden>
Date: 2026-08-20 01:23:57
Subsystem: networking drivers, stmmac ethernet driver, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Maxime Chevallier, Linus Torvalds

for_each_child_of_node() takes a reference on the current child. Breaking
out of the RX loop leaks that node because the TX loop then overwrites
q_node. The TX loop has the same break, and only happens to be safe
because of_node_put(q_node) at the out label drops the last TX child.

Use for_each_child_of_node_scoped() for both loops so the child is put
on every exit, including break, and drop the out-label put of q_node.

Fixes: d976a525c371 ("net: stmmac: multiple queues dt configuration")
Signed-off-by: Linkai Gong <redacted>

v2:
- Use for_each_child_of_node_scoped() for RX and TX (Andrew Lunn)
- Target net-next
