In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: samsung: Fix refcount leak in aries_audio_probe
of_parse_phandle() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when done.
If extcon_find_edev_by_node() fails, it doesn't call of_node_put()
Calling of_node_put() after extcon_find_edev_by_node() to fix this.
