From: Johan Hovold johan@kernel.org Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2017 17:51:25 +0100 Subject: irqchip/gic-v3: Fix ppi-partitions lookup
From: Johan Hovold johan@kernel.org
commit 00ee9a1ca5080202bc37b44e998c3b2c74d45817 upstream.
Fix child-node lookup during initialisation, which ended up searching the whole device tree depth-first starting at the parent rather than just matching on its children.
To make things worse, the parent gic node was prematurely freed, while the ppi-partitions node was leaked.
