Subject: [PATCH 4.9 05/21] mfd: twl4030-audio: Fix sibling-node lookup

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

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

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

commit 0a423772de2f3d7b00899987884f62f63ae00dcb upstream.

A helper purported to look up a child node based on its name was using
the wrong of-helper and ended up prematurely freeing the parent of-node
while leaking any matching node.

To make things worse, any matching node would not even necessarily be a
child node as the whole device tree was searched depth-first starting at
the parent.
