>This can fail if you boot a new kernel on a board with an old FDT that

work without crashing anything, so maybe that's not a huge issue.

>A reference count is leaked for the node in this error case because
of_node_put isn't called for the gpio node. Also, iounmap is never called
on vaddr.

Thanks for your inputs. I will fix and resubmit.
