[PATCH 5.15 621/917] powerpc: fix unbalanced node refcount in check_kvm_guest()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Nov 15 2021 - 18:57:02 EST


From: Nathan Lynch <nathanl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 56537faf8821e361d739fc5ff58c9c40f54a1d4c ]

When check_kvm_guest() succeeds in looking up a /hypervisor OF node, it
returns without performing a matching put for the lookup, leaving the
node's reference count elevated.

Add the necessary call to of_node_put(), rearranging the code slightly to
avoid repetition or goto.
