Re: [PATCH] net: stmmac: fix device node reference leaks in stmmac_mtl_setup()

Hello:

This patch was applied to netdev/net.git (main)
by Jakub Kicinski [off-list ref]:

In stmmac_mtl_setup(), q_node is shared across the RX and TX queue
parsing loops. When the RX queue loop breaks early because the number
of parsed queues reaches plat->rx_queues_to_use, q_node retains an
acquired reference count. If the error check passes
(queue == plat->rx_queues_to_use), execution proceeds directly to the
TX queue loop, where of_get_next_child() immediately overwrites q_node
with the first TX child, permanently leaking the retained RX child
device node reference.
