[PATCH 2/2] thermal/of: accessing potential uninitialized value

From: Peng Fan (OSS)
Date: Tue Jul 18 2023 - 21:12:07 EST


From: Peng Fan <peng.fan@xxxxxxx>

If of_parse_phandle_with_args returns failure, the cooling_spec.np is
uninitialized. So move of_node_put below the return value check to avoid
accessing uninitialized value.
