[PATCH] i2c: mux: demux-pinctrl: fix OF node leak on kstrdup failure
Posted by Linkai Gong 1 month, 2 weeks ago
of_parse_phandle() takes a reference on the parent node. If a later
devm_kstrdup() fails, err_rollback only releases nodes for indices
0..i-1, so the current node is leaked.

of_node_put() the current parent before rolling back.
