Subject: [PATCH v2] net: ethernet: bgmac-platform: fix an OF node reference leak

The OF node obtained by of_parse_phandle() is not freed. Call
of_node_put() to balance the refcount.

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

Changes in V2:
- Avoid using the __free() construct.
