Subject: [PATCH v2] net: ethernet: ti: netcp_core: fix device_node refcount leak in netcp_probe()
Date: Sat, 15 Aug 2026 00:34:53 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260814190453.951-1-manushprajwal555@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Manush Prajwal <manushprajwal555@gmail.com>
When netcp_create_interface() failed for a given child node,
netcp_probe() jumped to probe_quit_interface, which released the
"interfaces" parent node but never the "child" node that the
for_each_available_child_of_node() loop was iterating on.
Rework the loop around for_each_available_child_of_node_scoped()
instead of adding a manual of_node_put(). child is only read inside
the loop body and is never used after it, so the scoped macro's
automatic cleanup on the goto is sufficient on its own.

v2: Rework using for_each_available_child_of_node_scoped() instead of
a manual of_node_put(), per Andrew Lunn's review.
