[PATCH v4 05/20] nvmem: core: fix device node refcounting

From: Michael Walle
Date: Wed Nov 23 2022 - 13:03:49 EST


In of_nvmem_cell_get(), of_get_next_parent() is used on cell_np. This
will decrement the refcount on cell_np, but cell_np is still used later
in the code. Use of_get_parent() instead and of_node_put() in the
appropriate places.
