of_get_child_by_name() takes a reference we'll need to drop later so when we substitute in top we need to take a reference as well as just assigning. Without this patch we hit the following error: [ 1.246852] OF: ERROR: Bad of_node_put() on /sound-wm8524 [ 1.262261] Hardware name: NXP i.MX8MQ EVK (DT) [ 1.266807] Workqueue: events deferred_probe_work_func [ 1.271950] Call trace: [ 1.274406] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x158 [ 1.278074] show_stack+0x14/0x20 [ 1.281396] dump_stack+0xa8/0xcc [ 1.284717] of_node_release+0xb0/0xc8 [ 1.288474] kobject_put+0x74/0xf0 [ 1.291879] of_node_put+0x14/0x28 [ 1.295286] __of_get_next_child+0x44/0x70 [ 1.299387] of_get_next_child+0x3c/0x60 [ 1.303315] simple_for_each_link+0x1dc/0x230 [ 1.307676] simple_probe+0x80/0x540 [ 1.311256] platform_drv_probe+0x50/0xa0 This patch is based on an earlier version posted by Kuninori Morimoto and commit message includes explanations from Mark Brown. https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10814255/ Reported-by: Vicente Bergas <vicencb@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Baluta <daniel.baluta@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
