Yes, but you call it only in the error handling path of the function.

I wonder if they should also be called in the remove function in order 
to decrement the ref-counted reference.


Same in __get_dwc3_maximum_speed(), the reference taken by:
    dwc3_np = of_get_compatible_child(np, "snps,dwc3");
is never released.


See the comment at [1] to see what I mean.
