Johan Hovold 6d573c094c lib/genalloc: fix device leak in of_gen_pool_get()
commit 1260cbcffa608219fc9188a6cbe9c45a300ef8b5 upstream.

Make sure to drop the reference taken when looking up the genpool platform
device in of_gen_pool_get() before returning the pool.

Note that holding a reference to a device does typically not prevent its
devres managed resources from being released so there is no point in
keeping the reference.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
