[PATCH] bus: arm-cci: fix device_node refcount leak in cci_probe_ports()

From: Manush Prajwal

Date: Thu Aug 13 2026 - 07:16:39 EST


When the number of matching child nodes reaches nb_cci_ports,
cci_probe_ports() breaks out of the for_each_available_child_of_node()
loop without releasing the reference held on the current node. Every
other exit from this loop iteration either continues (handled by the
iterator) or stores the node into ports[i].dn; this early break is the
only path that drops the last handle to the node without a matching
of_node_put(). Add it before the break.
