Subject: [PATCH] regulator: core: fix unbalanced of node refcount in regulator_dev_lookup()

I got the the following report:

  OF: ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1 instead of 2,
  of_node_get()/of_node_put() unbalanced - destroy cset entry:
  attach overlay node /i2c/pmic@...regulators/exten

In of_get_regulator(), the node is returned from of_parse_phandle()
with refcount incremented, after using it, of_node_put() need be called.

Fixes: 69511a452e6d ("regulator: map consumer regulator based on device tree")
