[ 23/26] of/base: release the node correctly in of_parse_phandle_with_args()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jul 01 2013 - 16:18:51 EST


3.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Tang Yuantian <yuantian.tang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit b855f16b05a697ac1863adabe99bfba56e6d3199 upstream.

Call of_node_put() only when the out_args is NULL on success,
or the node's reference count will not be correct because the caller
will call of_node_put() again.
