If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 3c9be067be3a99684aceeab27b93c2f3a186137c Author: Xin Xiong <xiongx18@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Mar 4 16:53:32 2022 +0800 mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix refcount issue in atmel_nand_controller_init [ Upstream commit fecbd4a317c95d73c849648c406bcf1b6a0ec1cf ] The reference counting issue happens in several error handling paths on a refcounted object "nc->dmac". In these paths, the function simply returns the error code, forgetting to balance the reference count of "nc->dmac", increased earlier by dma_request_channel(), which may cause refcount leaks. Fix it by decrementing the refcount of specific object in those error paths.
