clocksource: clksrc-of: Do not drop unheld reference on device node

When booting a recent kernel on ARM with OF_DYNAMIC enabled, the kernel
warns about the following:

	[    0.000000] ERROR: Bad of_node_put() on /timer@50004600
	[    0.000000] CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 3.12.0-rc5-next-20131017-00077-gedfd827-dirty #406

This is caused by clocksource_of_init() dropping a reference on the
device node that it never took. The reference taken by the loop is
implicitly dropped on subsequent iterations. See the implementation of
and the comment on top of the of_find_matching_node_and_match()
function for reference (no pun intended).
