I agree, thanks for reviewing.

I think the cleanest solution is to use a local variable for the node in
the body of gpio_halt_probe(), and only assign to halt_node once all the
checks have passed.

So something like:

        struct device_node *child_node;

	child_node = of_find_matching_node(node, child_match);
        ...

	printk(KERN_INFO "gpio-halt: registered GPIO %d (%d trigger, %d"
	       " irq).\n", gpio, trigger, irq);
        ret = 0;
        halt_node = of_node_get(child_node);

out_put:
        of_node_put(child_node);
        
	return ret;
}


cheers
