Subject: [PATCH 4.9 059/138] irqchip/gic-v3: Fix ppi-partitions lookup

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

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

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

commit 00ee9a1ca5080202bc37b44e998c3b2c74d45817 upstream.

Fix child-node lookup during initialisation, which ended up searching
the whole device tree depth-first starting at the parent rather than
just matching on its children.

To make things worse, the parent gic node was prematurely freed, while
the ppi-partitions node was leaked.

Fixes: e3825ba1af3a ("irqchip/gic-v3: Add support for partitioned PPIs")
