What about:

Subject: drivers/thermal/tegra: Fix a double free on the device node

"The function 'for_each_child_of_node' iterates over the node list by
dropping the of_node reference of the previous node.

Calling of_node_put() on the iterator is pointless and leads to an
inconsistent refcounting in addition to a double free. Remove it."
