[PATCH 2/7] drivers/serial/mpc52xx_uart.c: Add of_node_put to avoid memory leak

From: Julia Lawall
Date: Sun Aug 29 2010 - 05:54:22 EST


Add a call to of_node_put in the error handling code following a call to
of_find_compatible_node.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@r exists@
local idexpression x;
expression E,E1;
statement S;
@@

*x =
(of_find_node_by_path
|of_find_node_by_name
|of_find_node_by_phandle
|of_get_parent
|of_get_next_parent
|of_get_next_child
|of_find_compatible_node
|of_match_node
)(...);
...
if (x == NULL) S
<... when != x = E
*if (...) {
... when != of_node_put(x)
when != if (...) { ... of_node_put(x); ... }
(
return <+...x...+>;
|
* return ...;
)
}
...>
of_node_put(x);
// </smpl>
