mfd: altera-sysmgr: Call of_node_put() only when of_parse_phandle() takes a ref
[ Upstream commit e28c28a34ee9fa2ea671a20e5e7064e6220d55e7 ]
of_parse_phandle() returns a device_node with refcount incremented, which
the callee needs to call of_node_put() on when done. We should only call
of_node_put() when the property argument is provided though as otherwise
nothing has taken a reference on the node.
