of_find_i2c_adapter_by_node() call requires quite often missing put_device(), and i2c_put_adapter() releases a device locked by i2c_get_adapter() only. In general module_put(adapter->owner) and put_device(dev) are not interchangeable. This is a common error reproduction scenario as a result of the misusage described above (for clearness this is run on iMX6 platform with HDMI and I2C bus drivers compiled as kernel modules): root@mx6q:~# lsmod | grep i2c i2c_imx 10213 0 root@mx6q:~# lsmod | grep dw_hdmi_imx dw_hdmi_imx 3631 0 dw_hdmi 11846 1 dw_hdmi_imx imxdrm 8674 3 dw_hdmi_imx,imx_ipuv3_crtc,imx_ldb drm_kms_helper 113765 5 dw_hdmi,imxdrm,imx_ipuv3_crtc,imx_ldb root@mx6q:~# rmmod dw_hdmi_imx root@mx6q:~# lsmod | grep i2c i2c_imx 10213 -1 ^^^^^ root@mx6q:~# rmmod i2c_imx rmmod: ERROR: Module i2c_imx is in use To fix existing users of these interfaces and to avoid any further confusion and misusage in future, add one more interface of_get_i2c_adapter_by_node(), it is similar to i2c_get_adapter() in sense that an I2C bus device driver found and locked by user can be correctly unlocked by i2c_put_adapter().
