In exynos_get_pmu_regmap_by_phandle(), driver_find_device_by_of_node() utilizes driver_find_device_by_fwnode() which internally calls driver_find_device() to locate the matching device. driver_find_device() increments the reference count of the found device by calling get_device(), but exynos_get_pmu_regmap_by_phandle() fails to call put_device() to decrement the reference count before returning. This results in a reference count leak of the device each time exynos_get_pmu_regmap_by_phandle() is executed, which may prevent the device from being properly released and cause a memory leak.
Found by code review.
