3.16.70-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit 2757970f6d0d0a112247600b23d38c0c728ceeb3 upstream. The node obtained from of_find_node_by_path() has to be unreferenced after the use, but we forgot it for the root node.
