In _init(), of_find_node_by_name() andof_get_next_child() will return a node pointer with refcount incremented. We should use of_node_put() in fail path or when it is not used anymore. NOTE: As the ref will be passed from 'bus' to 'np' by the xx_lookup(), in normal exit path, we should call of_node_put() at the end use of 'np', not the end use of 'bus'.
