Frank Li 82a09b9965 i3c: fix refcount inconsistency in i3c_master_register
[ Upstream commit 9d4f219807d5ac11fb1d596e4ddb09336b040067 ]

In `i3c_master_register`, a possible refcount inconsistency has been
identified, causing possible resource leak.

Function `of_node_get` increases the refcount of `parent->of_node`. If
function `i3c_bus_init` fails, the function returns immediately without
a corresponding decrease, resulting in an inconsistent refcounter.

Move call i3c_bus_init() after device_initialize() to let callback
i3c_masterdev_release() release of_node.

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.
