Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> ASoC: atmel: Fix error handling in snd_proto_probe<br /> <br /> The device_node pointer is returned by of_parse_phandle() with refcount<br /> incremented. We should use of_node_put() on it when done.<br /> <br /> This function only calls of_node_put() in the regular path.<br /> And it will cause refcount leak in error paths.<br /> Fix this by calling of_node_put() in error handling too.
