[PATCH 1/2] mtd: parsers: ofpart: call of_node_put() only in ofpart_fail path
From: Cosmin Tanislav
Date: Wed Mar 11 2026 - 11:41:27 EST
ofpart_none can only be reached after the for_each_child_of_node() loop
finishes. for_each_child_of_node() correctly calls of_node_put() for all
device nodes it iterates over as long as we don't break or jump out of
the loop.
Calling of_node_put() inside the ofpart_none path will wrongly decrement
the ref count of the last node in the for_each_child_of_node() loop.
Move the call to of_node_put() under the ofpart_fail label to fix this.
Fixes: ebd5a74db74e ("mtd: ofpart: Check availability of reg property instead of name property")
