Subject: [PATCH] net: ethernet: bgmac: Fix refcount leak in bcma_mdio_mii_register

of_get_child_by_name() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when not need anymore.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.

Fixes: format:55954f3bfdac ("net: ethernet: bgmac: move BCMA MDIO Phy
code into a separate file")
