OK so now we have a commit id for it and should have:

Fixes: 0549bde0fcb1 ("of: fix of_node leak caused in
of_find_node_opts_by_path")

What about other leaky users of of_find_node_by_name() and
of_get_child_by_name()?

We have those in:

control.c
display.c
omap_device.c
omap_hwmod.c

So probably it really should be two fixes, one for the regression
causing the error. Then another one for fixing the leaky np use.

Sorry for going back and forth here, I guess I did not full understand
the second part of the change in your earlier version of the patch
when you asked if it should be two patches.

Regards,

Tony
