| |
The call to of_find_compatible_node() is returning a pointer with incremented refcount so it must be explicitly decremented after the last use. As here it is only being used for checking of node presence but the result is not actually used in the success path it can be dropped immediately.
Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@osadl.org> Fixes: commit f725758b899f ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Use OPAL XICS emulation on POWER9") --- Problem found by experimental coccinelle script
Patch was compiletested with: ppc64_defconfig (implies CONFIG_KVM=y, CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV=m) with many sparse warnings though not related to the proposed change
Patch is against 4.18-rc3 (localversion-next is next-20180705)
