of_node_put is needed before discarding a value received from
of_find_node_by_name, eg in error handling code or when the device
node is no longer used.
The semantic match that catches the bug is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)
// <smpl>
@r exists@
local idexpression struct device_node *n;
position p1, p2;
