Subject: [PATCH v2] arch: fix resource leak in jbusmc_probe()

From: Siyang Liu <1972843537@...com>

In the jbusmc_probe function, the device node mem_node fetched
via of_find_node_by_path("/memory") is not properly freed
on all code paths.
This can lead to leakage of device node reference counts,
which may result in kernel resources not being released.

This issue was detected by rule based static tools
developed by Tencent.
