of: Fix a refcounting bug in __of_attach_node_sysfs()
The problem in this code is that if kobject_add() fails, then it should call of_node_put(np) to drop the reference count. I've actually moved the of_node_get(np) later in the function to avoid needing to do clean up. Fixes: 5b2c2f5a0ea3 ("of: overlay: add missing of_node_get() in __of_attach_node_sysfs") Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
