Zijun Hu be2c737d4a phy: core: Fix an OF node refcount leakage in of_phy_provider_lookup()
commit a2d633cb1421e679b56f1a9fe1f42f089706f1ed upstream.

For macro for_each_child_of_node(parent, child), refcount of @child has
been increased before entering its loop body, so normally needs to call
of_node_put(@child) before returning from the loop body to avoid refcount
leakage.

of_phy_provider_lookup() has such usage but does not call of_node_put()
before returning, so cause leakage of the OF node refcount.

Fix by simply calling of_node_put() before returning from the loop body.

The APIs affected by this issue are shown below since they indirectly
invoke problematic of_phy_provider_lookup().
phy_get()
of_phy_get()
devm_phy_get()
devm_of_phy_get()
devm_of_phy_get_by_index()

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.
