Subject: [PATCH 4.14 073/100] mtd: rawnand: atmel: fix OF child-node lookup

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

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

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

commit 5d1e9c2212ea6b4dd735e4fc3dd6279a365d5d10 upstream.

Use the new of_get_compatible_child() helper to lookup the nfc child
node instead of using of_find_compatible_node(), which searches the
entire tree from a given start node and thus can return an unrelated
(i.e. non-child) node.

This also addresses a potential use-after-free (e.g. after probe
deferral) as the tree-wide helper drops a reference to its first
argument (i.e. the node of the device being probed).

While at it, also fix a related nfc-node reference leak.
