[PATCH v2] regulator: core: Add of_node_put() before return
From: Nishka Dasgupta
Date: Thu Aug 08 2019 - 03:06:17 EST
In function of_get_child_regulator(), the loop for_each_child_of_node()
contains two mid-loop return statements. Ordinarily the loop gets the
node child at the beginning of every iteration and automatically puts
child after the main body has been executed. However in the case of a
mid-loop return child is not put, which may cause a memory leak.
Hence create a new label, err_node_put, that puts child and then returns
the required value; edit the mid-loop return statements to instead go to
this new label.
Issue found with Coccinelle.

- Create a new label to put the node and return regnode.
