Each iteration of for_each_child_of_node() executes of_node_put() on the previous node, but in some return paths in the middle of the loop of_node_put() is missing thus causing a reference leak. Hence stash these mid-loop return values in a variable 'err' and add a new label err_node_put which executes of_node_put() on the previous node and returns 'err' on failure. Change mid-loop return statements to point to jump to this label to fix the reference leak. Issue found with Coccinelle.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
