4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 28ec2238f37e72a3a40a7eb46893e7651bcc40a6 ] of_find_compatible_node() returns a device_node pointer with refcount incremented and must be decremented explicitly. As this code is using the result only to check presence of the interrupt controller (!NULL) but not actually using the result otherwise the refcount can be decremented here immediately again.
