[ Upstream commite3beca48a4] Quite some non OF/ACPI users of irqdomains allocate firmware nodes of type IRQCHIP_FWNODE_NAMED or IRQCHIP_FWNODE_NAMED_ID and free them right after creating the irqdomain. The only purpose of these FW nodes is to convey name information. When this was introduced the core code did not store the pointer to the node in the irqdomain. A recent change stored the firmware node pointer in irqdomain for other reasons and missed to notice that the usage sites which do the alloc_fwnode/create_domain/free_fwnode sequence are broken by this. Storing a dangling pointer is dangerous itself, but in case that the domain is destroyed later on this leads to a double free. Remove the freeing of the firmware node after creating the irqdomain from all affected call sites to cure this.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
