x86/amd_node: Fix PCI device reference counting in amd_smn_init()grafted
The local "root" pointer is a temporary variable used during the device search. Therefore, refcount related to the search iterators should be cleaned up after the search is complete. Use the __free() cleanup macro to ensure the refcount is decremented when the temporary pointer goes out of scope. Additionally, increment the refcount when caching a root pointer. This ensures the in-use refcount is separate from the temporary search refcounting. Finally, drop the redundant "root = NULL" before the second search loop. The pci_get_class() iterator always decrements the refcount of its "from" argument, so the first loop can only fall through with "root" already NULL.

+Date: September 2010
+Contact: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ This file contains the name of the PTP hardware clock
+ as a human readable string. The purpose of this
+ attribute is to provide the user with a "friendly
+ name" and to help distinguish PHY based devices from
+ MAC based ones. The string does not necessarily have
+ to be any kind of unique id.

+Date: May 2021
+Contact: Yangbo Lu <yangbo.lu@nxp.com>
+Description:
+ This file contains the number of virtual PTP clocks in
+ use. By default, the value is 0 meaning that only the
+ physical clock is in use. Setting the value creates
+ the corresponding number of virtual clocks and causes
+ the physical clock to become free running. Setting the
+ value back to 0 deletes the virtual clocks and
+ switches the physical clock back to normal, adjustable
+ operation.

+What: /sys/class/ptp/ptp<N>/pins
+Date: March 2014
+Contact: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com>
+Description:
+ This directory contains one file for each programmable
+ pin offered by the PTP hardware clock. The file name
+ is the hardware dependent pin name. Reading from this
+ file produces two numbers, the assigned function (see
+ the `PTP_PF_` enumeration values in linux/ptp_clock.h)
+ and the channel number. The function and channel
+ assignment may be changed by two writing numbers into
+ the file.

+Description:
+ This file indicates whether the PTP hardware clock
+ supports a Pulse Per Second to the host CPU. Reading
+ "1" means that the PPS is supported, while "0" means
+ not supported.

+Description:
+ This write-only file enables or disables periodic
