Subject: [PATCH] spi: bcm2835: fix device_node reference leak in bcm2835_spi_setup()
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2026 15:44:50 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260923184450.135601-1-2000.costalucas@gmail.com> (raw)
of_find_compatible_node() returns a device_node with its reference count
incremented, but the function bcm2835_spi_setup() uses the ret value
in the loop to check a condition and never releases it.
Store the returned node and drop it with of_node_put() before breaking
out of the loop.
Fixes: e19c1272c80a ("spi: bcm2835: Restore native CS probing when pinctrl-bcm2835 is absent")
