This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/of: free the iterator object on failure to the 5.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: drm-of-free-the-iterator-object-on-failure.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit e010b5d22028ce8a2254cb96d20826880bb2702a Author: Steven Price <steven.price@xxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jul 14 15:33:00 2021 +0100 drm/of: free the iterator object on failure [ Upstream commit 6f9223a56fabc840836b49de27dc7b27642c6a32 ] When bailing out due to the sanity check the iterator value needs to be freed because the early return prevents for_each_child_of_node() from doing the dereference itself.
