Hmm, if of_find_node_by_name() "puts" passed in node should we not "get"
it before calling of_find_node_by_name()? The node pointer in question
is simply copied from parent device.

I'm not sure. what I can say is that I cannot see such error in 4.1
but only in 4.2-rcx.
Adding Grant and Rob to CC, maybe they know what should be done and
why I see such error in 4.2-rcx.

The problem was that node passed into of_find_node_by_name is the the
starting point to search, but you should be doing the put on the
returned node. So the patch below is correct.
As far as why in 4.2, it seems you have OF_DYNAMIC enabled in your
config either because you have DT unit test or overlays enabled.
Overlays are now user enable-able in 4.2.

Fine!
We have a similar error on OMAP5 here:

So it looks as if there are more get/put mismatches in the drivers which are usually not visible.

Further analysis turns out that we recently have enabled DRM_TILCDC_SLAVE_COMPAT=y
which we need to make our uImage additionally support the BeagleBone Black with LDC panel
(as mandated by arch/arm/boot/dts/am335x-boneblack.dts using ?ti,tilcdc,slave?).
This automatically enables OF_OVERLAY which enables OF_DYNAMIC.
Obviously this now has unexpected side-effects on other systems with universal kernels configured
to support both, beaglebone and non-beaglebone devices.
So what is wrong? The sequence DRM_TILCDC_SLAVE_COMPAT => set OF_OVERLAY => set OF_DYNAMIC?
Or of_node_get/put() bugs in some drivers revealed by running the unit tests?
I have added Tomi to the discussion and we will try to understand/fix omapdss_of_find_source_for_first_ep().

Right, but the question was whether we should also "get" the node that
we are passing into of_find_node_by_name(), or, maybe better, stop
of_find_node_by_name() from "putting" the node that is passed in? It is
really surprising behavior.

I agree that it is quite unexpected and would be much easier to understand
if it would not put the node.
But I guess it is intended to be a convenience to make it easier to walk down
the tree, i.e. that you can simply write
np = of_find_node_by_name(NULL, ?level11?);
np = of_find_node_by_name(np, ?level2?);
np = of_find_node_by_name(np, ?level3?);
Otherwise it would need some temporary variable and explicit calls to put the
parent level after finding a child node.
On the other hand greping for of_find_node_by_name returns many more
calls with parent = NULL than others. So the put is ignored anyways.
But it is a major change in semantics of a very low level function so it is
easy to introduce regressions (especially in out-of-the tree drivers).
Just my 2 cts,

Right, also for_each_node_by_name() relies on this behavior (but we can
fix it to use something like __of_find_node_by_name_and_put_from()).

I am not sure how much we should care about out of tree drivers; but I
worry that there are several callers that simply do:
np = of_find_node_by_bame(dev->of_node, "blah");
in our tree...

Yep, we'll have a look at that.
