Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: hwrng; fix missing of_node_put()
Date: Mon, 2 Jul 2018 11:08:16 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1530522496-14816-1-git-send-email-hofrat@osadl.org> (raw)
The call to of_find_compatible_node() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented thus it must be explicitly decremented here before returning.
Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@osadl.org>
Fixes: commit a489043f4626 ("powerpc/pseries: Implement arch_get_random_long() based on H_RANDOM")
