Got following report when doing overlay_test: OF: ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1 instead of 2, of_node_get()/of_node_put() unbalanced - destroy cset entry: attach overlay node /kunit-test OF: ERROR: memory leak before free overlay changeset, /kunit-test In of_overlay_apply_kunit_cleanup(), the "np" will be overwritten by the second of_find_node_by_name(), and the error message came from kunit_cleanup(), just call of_node_put() before it to fix it.
