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.

+SYNOPSIS
+========
+**rtla timerlat hist** [*OPTIONS*] ...
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+
+.. include:: common_timerlat_description.txt
+
+The **rtla timerlat hist** displays a histogram of each tracer event
+occurrence. This tool uses the periodic information, and the
+**osnoise:** tracepoints are enabled when using the **-T** option.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+
+.. include:: common_timerlat_options.txt
+
+.. include:: common_hist_options.txt
+
+.. include:: common_options.txt
+
+.. include:: common_timerlat_aa.txt
+
+EXAMPLE
+=======
+In the example below, **rtla timerlat hist** is set to run for *10* minutes,
+in the cpus *0-4*, *skipping zero* only lines. Moreover, **rtla timerlat
+hist** will change the priority of the *timerlat* threads to run under
+*SCHED_DEADLINE* priority, with a *100us* runtime every *1ms* period. The
+*1ms* period is also passed to the *timerlat* tracer. Auto-analysis is disabled
+to reduce overhead ::
+
