Subject: [PATCH] of: overlay: add_changeset_property() memory leak

From: Frank Rowand <[email protected]>

No changeset entries are created for #address-cells and #size-cells
properties, but the duplicated properties are never freed. This
results in a memory leak which is detected by kmemleak:

unreferenced object 0x85887180 (size 64):
backtrace:
kmem_cache_alloc_trace+0x1fb/0x1fc
__of_prop_dup+0x25/0x7c
add_changeset_property+0x17f/0x370
build_changeset_next_level+0x29/0x20c
of_overlay_fdt_apply+0x32b/0x6b4
...

Fixes: 6f75118800acf77f8 ("of: overlay: validate overlay properties #address-cells and #size-cells")

Can you please check whether this patch fixes the memleak that you
found and fixed in "[PATCH 1/2] of: overlay: fix properties memory leak"?
