[PATCH net v2 1/3] bus: fsl-mc: Fix potential double device reference in fsl_mc_get_endpoint()

[Ma Ke]

The fsl_mc_get_endpoint() function may call fsl_mc_device_lookup() 
twice, which would increment the device's reference count twice if 
both lookups find a device. This could lead to a reference count leak.

Found by code review.

[PATCH net v2 2/3] dpaa2-eth: Fix device reference count leak in MAC endpoint handling

[Ma Ke]

The fsl_mc_get_endpoint() function uses device_find_child() for
localization, which implicitly calls get_device() to increment the
device's reference count before returning the pointer. However, the
caller dpaa2_eth_connect_mac() fails to properly release this 
reference in multiple scenarios. We should call put_device() to 
decrement reference count properly.

As comment of device_find_child() says, 'NOTE: you will need to drop
the reference with put_device() after use'.

Found by code review.

[PATCH net v2 3/3] dpaa2-switch: Fix device reference count leak in MAC endpoint handling

[Ma Ke]

The fsl_mc_get_endpoint() function uses device_find_child() for
localization, which implicitly calls get_device() to increment the
device's reference count before returning the pointer. However, the
caller dpaa2_switch_port_connect_mac() fails to properly release this 
reference in multiple scenarios. We should call put_device() to 
decrement reference count properly.

As comment of device_find_child() says, 'NOTE: you will need to drop

I think this should be:

Fixes: 8567494cebe5 ("bus: fsl-mc: rescan devices if endpoint not found")
