Subject: [PATCH v2] powerpc: kernel: fix refcount leak in format_show()
Date:   Wed,  2 Mar 2022 10:19:59 +0800

Refcount leak will happen when format_show returns failure in multiple
cases. Unified management of of_node_put can fix this problem.

v2: 
1. change the title and description information. 
2. fix all possible refcount leak.
