From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 8a325dd06f2358ea0888e4ff1c9ca4bc23bd53f3 ] The problem in this code is that if kobject_add() fails, then it should call of_node_put(np) to drop the reference count. I've actually moved the of_node_get(np) later in the function to avoid needing to do clean up.
