bus_find_device() is defined as:
* This is similar to the bus_for_each_dev() function above, but it
* returns a reference to a device that is 'found' for later use, as
* determined by the @match callback.
and it does indeed return a reference-counted pointer to the device:
while ((dev = next_device(&i)))
if (match(dev, data) && get_device(dev))
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
break;
klist_iter_exit(&i);
return dev;
What that means is that when we're done with the struct device, we must
drop that reference. Neither of_phy_connect() nor of_phy_attach() did
this when phy_connect_direct() or phy_attach_direct() failed.
With our previous patch, phy_connect_direct() and phy_attach_direct()
take a new refcount on the phy device when successful, so we can drop
our local reference immediatley after these functions, whether or not
they succeeded.
