Subject: [PATCH] mtd: partitions: fix unbalanced of_node_get/put()
While at first mtd_part_of_parse() would just call
of_get_chil_by_name(), it has been patched to deal with sub-partitions
and will now directly manipulate the node returned by mtd_get_of_node()
if the MTD device is a partition.
A of_node_put() was a bit below in the code, to balance the
of_get_child_by_name(). However, despite its name, mtd_get_of_node()
does not take a reference on the OF node. It is a simple helper hiding
some pointer logic to retrieve the OF node related to an MTD
device.
The direct effect of such unbalanced reference counting is visible by
rmmod'ing any module that would have added MTD partitions:
OF: ERROR: Bad of_node_put() on <of_path_to_partition>
As it seems normal to get a reference on the OF node during the
of_property_for_each_string() that follows, add a call to
of_node_get() when relevant.
Fixes: 76a832254ab0 ("mtd: partitions: use DT info for parsing partitions with "compatible" prop")

drm_mode_setcrtc() retries modesetting in case one of the functions it
calls returns -EDEADLK. connector_set, mode and fb are freed before
retrying, but they are not set to NULL. This can cause
drm_mode_setcrtc() to use those variables.
For example: On the first try __drm_mode_set_config_internal() returns
-EDEADLK. connector_set, mode and fb are freed. Next retry starts, and
drm_modeset_lock_all_ctx() returns -EDEADLK, and we jump to 'out'. The
code will happily try to release all three again.
This leads to crashes of different kinds, depending on the sequence the
EDEADLKs happen.
Fix this by setting the three variables to NULL at the start of the
retry loop.
