Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH] OF: fix of_find_node_by_path() assumption that of_allnodes is root
Date: Sat, 14 Jun 2014 20:39:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <539D1559.8080603@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <539D14CA.1060105@gmail.com>

From: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@sonymobile.com>

of_find_node_by_path() is borked because of_allnodes is not guaranteed to
contain the root of the tree after using any of the dynamic update functions
because some other nodes ends up as of_allnodes.

Fixes: c22e650e66b8 of: Make of_find_node_by_path() handle /aliases
Reported-by: pantelis.antoniou@konsulko.com
Signed-off-by: Frank Rowand <frank.rowand@sonymobile.com>

v2:
  Remove change to function header, no longer needed.
  Remove BUG_ON(), no longer needed.
  Add np as np->parent->allnext instead of np->parent->allnext, as suggested
    by Grant Likely.
