In _init(), of_find_node_by_name() will return a node pointer with
refcount incremented. We should use of_node_put() in fail path or
when it is not used anymore.
NOTE: As the ref will be passed from 'bus' to 'np' by the xx_lookup(),
in normal exit path, we should call of_node_put() at the end use of 'np',
not the end use of 'bus'.

Before applying the patch please check it carefully. Previous evidence
[1][2] suggests that not it was not even compiled.

Looks correct to me. What about missing of_node_put() for
of_get_next_child() also in the _init() function?

Well in this case while you review a single function, it's usually better
to fix similar issues to avoid having to review the same function multiple
times. Of course if the patch becomes hard to read, then it makes sense
to split it into several patches.

Please just update this patch so we have _init() completely reviewed for
similar issues and is not left only partially patched.

Thanks, Tony.
I have found this bug but not send the patch for of_get_next_child()
as I am collecting other OF function related bugs and I have been told that it is better
to collect all similar bugs in same directory, then finally report them.
So I will send a new patch for both of the two missing 'put' bugs caused by
of_find_xxx() and of_get_xxx() in omap_hwmod.c
Thanks gain.
