[PATCH] phy: ti: omap-usb2: fix OF node leak at probe

From: Guangshuo Li

Date: Wed Jul 08 2026 - 04:19:02 EST


omap_usb2_probe() parses the ctrl-module phandle and then looks up the
corresponding platform device.

of_parse_phandle() returns a device node with a reference that must be
dropped by the caller. The driver currently keeps the device reference
taken by of_find_device_by_node() until unbind, but never drops the
temporary OF node reference taken by of_parse_phandle().

Drop the OF node reference after of_find_device_by_node() has consumed
the node. This covers both the successful lookup path and the
