Thank,  I use vexpress-v2p-ca15-tc1 and can't reproduce , but after 
check the code,

amba_device_try_add() is called amba_deferred_retry() and amba_device_add(),

1) for amba_device_add(), called by of_amba_device_create() and 
amba_handler_attach(),

which has called amba_device_put() to release resource when meet error, my

patch leads to the above issue.

2) for amba_deferred_retry(),  it only releases the  struct 
deferred_device, but forget

to call amba_device_put() to release amba device and device name

so we only need to call amba_device_put() in amba_deferred_retry(), 
could you

help me to try the following patch, thanks.
