Subject: [PATCH 14/15] arm64: cpu_ops: fix a leaked reference by addingmissing of_node_put

The call to of_get_next_child returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented thus it must be explicitly decremented after the last
usage.

Detected by coccinelle with the following warnings:
./arch/arm64/kernel/cpu_ops.c:102:1-7: ERROR: missing of_node_put; acquired a node pointer with refcount incremented on line 69, but without a corresponding object release within this function.
