Message-ID <[email protected]>
cpm_i2c_probe() calls of_node_get() to take an extra reference on the
platform device's of_node when assigning it to the adapter device, but
neither the probe error paths nor cpm_i2c_remove() drops it.

device_release() does not call of_node_put() and i2c_adapter_dev_release()
only completes a struct, so the extra reference is never released, leaking
the device_node on every probe failure and every adapter removal.

Add the matching of_node_put() to the probe error cleanup (out_free, which
covers both the cpm_i2c_setup() and i2c_add_numbered_adapter() failure
paths, neither of which runs i2c_del_adapter()) and to cpm_i2c_remove().

In cpm_i2c_remove(), i2c_del_adapter() clears adap->dev with memset() at
the end (commit bd4bc3dbded9 ("i2c: Clear i2c_adapter.dev on adapter
removal")), which zeroes adap->dev.of_node before of_node_put() runs.
Cache the pointer before calling i2c_del_adapter(), the same approach
used in i2c-mux (i2c_mux_del_adapters) and mtd (commit 56570bdad5e3
("mtd: core: Fix refcount error in del_mtd_device()")).

Compile-tested with gcc-powerpc-linux-gnu on tqm8xx defconfig; no
hardware available for runtime testing.
