Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Fix refcount leak in mv88e6xxx_mdios_register
Date:   Thu, 26 May 2022 12:37:48 +0400
Message-Id: <20220526083748.39816-1-linmq006@gmail.com>

Precedence: bulk

of_get_child_by_name() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when done.
This function missing of_node_put() in an error path.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.
