Hi Javier,

thanks for spotting the issue

of_find_compatible_node() increments the node's refcount, and it must be
decremented again with a call to of_node_put() when the pointer is no
longer required to avoid leaking memory.

Add the missing calls to of_node_put() in dmtimer_percpu_quirck_init()
for the 'arm_timer' device node.

Best practice would be to group of_node_put into a single place.

	bool available;

	[ ... ]

	available = of_device_is_available(arm_timer);
	of_node_put(arm_timer);

	if (available) {
		pr_warn_once("ARM architected timer wrap issue i940 detected\n");
		return 0;

  		return dmtimer_percpu_timer_init(np, 0);
