Hi Philipp,

Thank you for the patch.

Benoit, please see below for a possible issue in the am437x-vpfe driver.

For the am47x-vpfe driver,

Acked-by: Laurent Pinchart <laurent.pinchart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Benoit, there seems to be a refcount issue with rem. The node pointer is 
assigned to pdata->asd[i]->match.of.node, which should require a reference, 
but you then call of_node_put(rem), releasing the only reference held. Isn't 
that a problem ?

Furthermore, on the next iteration, if an error occurs the goto done will 
result in of_node_put(rem) being called again, releasing a reference that you 
don't hold. I've sent a patch to fix that.
