Subject: [PATCH v4 01/15] software_node: Fix refcounts in software_node_get_next_child()

The software_node_get_next_child() function currently does not hold
references to the child software_node that it finds or put the ref that
is held against the old child - fix that.

Fixes: 59abd83672f7 ("drivers: base: Introducing software nodes to the firmware node framework")
