[PATCH stable 6.1 1/2] cacheinfo: Decrement refcount in cache_setup_of_node()

From: Florian Fainelli

Date: Fri Feb 13 2026 - 13:02:42 EST


From: Pierre Gondois <pierre.gondois@xxxxxxx>

commit 3da72e18371c41a6f6f96b594854b178168c7757 upstream

Refcounts to DT nodes are only incremented in the function
and never decremented. Decrease the refcounts when necessary.
