block: partitions: fix of_node refcount leak in of_partition()
of_partition() calls of_node_get() on the parent device node at the beginning of the function, storing the reference in 'partitions_np'. This reference is leaked in two paths: 1. The compatibility check at the top of the function returns 0 without releasing partitions_np when the node exists but is not "fixed-partitions" compatible. 2. The function returns 1 at the end after successfully processing all partitions without releasing partitions_np. Fix both leaks by adding of_node_put(partitions_np) on each path. Fixes: 2e3a191e89f9 ("block: add support for partition table defined in OF") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Wentao Liang <vulab@iscas.ac.cn> Reviewed-by: Md Haris Iqbal <haris.iqbal@linux.dev> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260526102124.2283846-1-vulab@iscas.ac.cn Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
