Linux Kernel 4.5-6.6.58, 6.7.0-6.11.5 - Reference Count Leak in FSL/FMAN Device Binding

Title source: llm

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fsl/fman: Fix refcount handling of fman-related devices In mac_probe() there are multiple calls to of_find_device_by_node(), fman_bind() and fman_port_bind() which takes references to of_dev->dev. Not all references taken by these calls are released later on error path in mac_probe() and in mac_remove() which lead to reference leaks. Add references release.
