Subject: [PATCH] thermal: thermal_of: Fix device node reference leak in thermal_of_cm_lookup

In thermal_of_cm_lookup(), of_parse_phandle() returns a device node with
its reference count incremented. The caller is responsible for releasing
this reference when the node is no longer needed.

Add of_node_put(tr_np) to fix the reference leaks.

Found via static analysis.
