[PATCH RESEND net] net: mv643xx: fix OF node refcount
From: Bartosz Golaszewski
Date: Tue Jun 02 2026 - 03:50:14 EST
Platform devices created with platform_device_alloc() call
platform_device_release() when the last reference to the device's
kobject is dropped. This function calls of_node_put() unconditionally.
This works fine for devices created with platform_device_register_full()
but users of the split approach (platform_device_alloc() +
platform_device_add()) must bump the reference of the of_node they
assign manually. Add the missing call to of_node_get().
