Subject: [PATCH] spmi: hisi-spmi-controller: manage the OF node reference in device initialization and cleanup

spmi_controller_probe() increments the refcount of an OF node, but does
not release it. Instead, call of_node_get() in spmi_controller_alloc()
and release it in spmi_ctrl_release() to avoid the reference leak.

This bug was found by an experimental static analysis tool that I am
developing.
