Make sure to drop the reference taken to the canvas platform device when looking up its driver data. Note that holding a reference to a device does not prevent its driver data from going away so there is no point in keeping the reference. Also note that commit28f851e6af("soc: amlogic: canvas: add missing put_device() call in meson_canvas_get()") fixed the leak in a lookup error path, but the reference is still leaking on success.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
