of_parse_phandle_with_args() transfers a reference to the provider node in out_args->np, which the caller is responsible for releasing with of_node_put(). Neither qcom_get_related_cpus() nor qcom_cpufreq_hw_cpu_init() ever puts args.np: they only put cpu_np, which is a different node obtained from of_cpu_device_node_get(). The reference is therefore leaked on every successful call, and qcom_get_related_cpus() leaks one per present CPU. Release args.np after the parsed index has been read in both call sites.
