Subject: [PATCH] of: Document exactly what of_find_node_by_name() puts
Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2017 17:45:36 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171111014536.3592-1-sboyd@codeaurora.org> (raw)
It isn't clear if this function of_node_put()s the 'from'
argument, or the node it finds in the search. Clearly indicate
which variable is touched.
