The issue is that, during the device devlink removals triggered from the of_platform_depopulate(), jobs are put in a workqueue. These jobs drop the reference to the devices. When a device is no more referenced (refcount == 0), it is released and the reference to its of_node is dropped by a call to of_node_put(). These operations are fully correct except that, because of the workqueue, they are done asynchronously with respect to function calls. In the sequence provided, the jobs are run too late, after the call to __of_changeset_entry_destroy() and so a missing of_node_put() call is detected by __of_changeset_entry_destroy(). This series fixes this issue introducing device_link_wait_removal() in order to wait for the end of jobs execution (patch 1) and using this function to synchronize the overlay removal with the end of jobs execution (patch 2).
