  [PATCH 2/2] powerpc/pseries: fix parent_dn reference leak in add_dt_node() Tyrel Datwyler <tyreld@linux.vnet.ibm.com> - 2017-09-20 23:10 +0200

#1736139 — [PATCH 2/2] powerpc/pseries: fix parent_dn reference leak in add_dt_node()

A reference to the parent device node is held by add_dt_node() for the
node to be added. If the call to dlpar_configure_connector() fails
add_dt_node() returns ENOENT and that reference is not freed.

Add a call to of_node_put(parent_dn) prior to bailing out after a failed
dlpar_configure_connector() call.
