+Subject: [PATCH] ubus: fix refcount issue in uc_ubus_object_notify
+
+uc_ubus_object_notify_complete_cb will clear the reference in notify_ctx->res,
+so in the synchronous case, an extra ucv_get call is needed.
+Fixes an accidental double-unref bug
+
+Fixes: 94ad17d13a0d ("ubus: use ucv_resource_create_ex for ubus.notify resources")
