Subject: [PATCH 5.16 091/285] powerpc/secvar: fix refcount leak in format_show()

From: Hangyu Hua <hbh25y@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit d601fd24e6964967f115f036a840f4f28488f63f ]

Refcount leak will happen when format_show returns failure in multiple
cases. Unified management of of_node_put can fix this problem.
