Thanks a lot for bringing this up!

Here I have one question:
My understanding is that with this patch we now use
of_node_put(chip_np); in case any error occurs during probe.
But what about the case where there's no error and someone later
unloads the driver (using rmmod)? Or in other words: do we need
another of_node_put() call in ebu_nand_remove()?
Best regards,
Martin
