Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y] power: supply: ltc2941: Fix of_node reference leak in ltc294x_i2c_probe()
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 09:20:25 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261110142009.1874987-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261107051900-failed-6.12-09a29213bf15@kernel.org>
From: Wentao Liang <vulab@iscas.ac.cn>
[ Upstream commit 09a29213bf15630e85a375478832b074b2cfc5c8 ]
ltc294x_i2c_probe() takes a reference on the device node with
of_node_get(), but never drops it, so the reference leaks on every
return path, including the success path.
The node is only used to read the battery properties and to set
info->supply_desc.name, so release it after its last use and also on
the lltc,resistor-sense error path.
Fixes: 085bc24d1553 ("Add LTC2941/LTC2943 Battery Gauge Driver")
