[PATCH] of/irq: Fix device node refcount leak in of_check_msi_parent()
From: Fuad Tabba
Date: Fri Sep 04 2026 - 03:36:34 EST
of_msi_xlate() documents @msi_np as a filter when it points at a node on
entry, handing back a reference only when it points at NULL. The msi-map
branch does that. of_check_msi_parent() keeps the reference from the 1:1
msi-parent match either way.
pci_msi_domain_get_msi_rid() is the only caller that passes a node in,
from irq_domain_get_of_node(), and it puts nothing, so a 1:1 match there
leaks the MSI controller node.
Fixes: 119aaeed0b67 ("of/irq: Add msi-parent check to of_msi_xlate()")
