I think the function above (dra7xx_pcie_init_irq_domain) can do the of_node_put at its end in all cases as suggested by Kishon. of_get_next_child() will increment the refcount irq_domain_add_linear() __irq_domain_add() also increments the refcount irq_domain_remove() will decrement the refcount So it should be safe to decrement the refcount in dra7xx_pcie_init_irq_domain() in all cases as the irq-domain internals will always keep it above 1 as long as the node is used.
