Jon Mason b601616681 mdio: mux: Correct mdio_mux_init error path issues
There is a potential unnecessary refcount decrement on error path of
put_device(&pb->mii_bus->dev), as it is possible to avoid the
of_mdio_find_bus() call if mux_bus is specified by the calling function.

The same put_device() is not called in the error path if the
devm_kzalloc of pb fails.  This caused the variable used in the
put_device() to be changed, as the pb pointer was obviously not set up.

There is an unnecessary of_node_get() on child_bus_node if the
of_mdiobus_register() is successful, as the
for_each_available_child_of_node() automatically increments this.
Thus the refcount on this node will always be +1 more than it should be.

There is no of_node_put() on child_bus_node if the of_mdiobus_register()
call fails.

Finally, it is lacking devm_kfree() of pb in the error path.  While this
might not be technically necessary, it was present in other parts of the
function.  So, I am adding it where necessary to make it uniform.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
