net: dsa: bcm_sf2: Fix a possible memory leak in bcm_sf2_mdio_register()
stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.224 commit b7b8d9f5e679af60c94251fd6728dde34be69a71 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/IAOXYL CVE: CVE-2024-44971 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=b7b8d9f5e679af60c94251fd6728dde34be69a71 ------------------------------------------------- [ Upstream commit e3862093ee93fcfbdadcb7957f5f8974fffa806a ] bcm_sf2_mdio_register() calls of_phy_find_device() and then phy_device_remove() in a loop to remove existing PHY devices. of_phy_find_device() eventually calls bus_find_device(), which calls get_device() on the returned struct device * to increment the refcount. The current implementation does not decrement the refcount, which causes memory leak. This commit adds the missing phy_device_free() call to decrement the refcount via put_device() to balance the refcount.
