Subject: [PATCH 4.12 08/27] USB: core: fix device node leak

4.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <johan@...nel.org>

commit e271b2c909a22a2c13b2d5f77f2ce0091b74540c upstream.

Make sure to release any OF device-node reference taken when creating
the USB device.

Note that we currently do not hold a reference to the root hub
device-tree node (i.e. the parent controller node).

Fixes: 69bec7259853 ("USB: core: let USB device know device node")
