I can follow this view to some degree.

This programming error affects also the use of data structures which became invalid.

> So we sent two patches to fix them separately.

You would like to fix something according to two variables (of the data type “device_node *”)
in the same function implementation.
Please combine these corrections in an update step under a topic like
“ASoC: samsung: odroid: Fix handling of device node references in odroid_audio_probe()”.
(The previous update step would contain still a known programming mistake otherwise,
wouldn't it?)

Regards,
Markus
