Subject: CVE-2022-49462: drm/msm/a6xx: Fix refcount leak in a6xx_gpu_init
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/a6xx: Fix refcount leak in a6xx_gpu_init
of_parse_phandle() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when not need anymore.
a6xx_gmu_init() passes the node to of_find_device_by_node()
and of_dma_configure(), of_find_device_by_node() will takes its
reference, of_dma_configure() doesn't need the node after usage.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-49462 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
