Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y] dmaengine: stm32: dmamux: fix device leak on route allocation
Date: Wed, 21 Jan 2026 07:29:51 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260121122951.1531380-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026012058-panhandle-outlying-c4b8@gregkh>

From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit dd6e4943889fb354efa3f700e42739da9bddb6ef ]

Make sure to drop the reference taken when looking up the DMA mux
platform device during route allocation.

Note that holding a reference to a device does not prevent its driver
data from going away so there is no point in keeping the reference.

Fixes: df7e762db5f6 ("dmaengine: Add STM32 DMAMUX driver")
