Subject: [PATCH 0/1] drop unneeded of_node_get

for_each_child_of_node performs an of_node_get on each iteration, so no
of_node_get is needed on breaking out of the loop when the device_node
structure is saved in another variable.

The complete semantic match that finds this problem is
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr):
