commit a8de554774ae48efbe48ace79f8badae2daa2bf1 upstream.
In of_unittest_pci_node_verify(), when the add parameter is false,
device_find_any_child() obtains a reference to a child device. This
function implicitly calls get_device() to increment the device's
reference count before returning the pointer. However, the caller
fails to properly release this reference by calling put_device(),
leading to a device reference count leak. Add put_device() in the else
branch immediately after child_dev is no longer needed.
As the comment of device_find_any_child states: "NOTE: you will need
to drop the reference with put_device() after use".

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
