The device_for_each_child_node() macro requires explicit calls to
fwnode_handle_put() upon early exits (return, break, goto) to decrement
the fwnode's refcount, and avoid levaing a node reference behind.
Add the missing fwnode_handle_put() after the common label for all error
paths.

I usually switch to the scoped variant of the macro to fix such issues,
but given that the fix is relevant for stable kernels, I have provided
the "classical" approach by adding the missing fwnode_handle_put().
If switching to the scoped variant is desired, please let me know.
This driver and cross_typec_switch could be easily converted.
By the way, I wonder why all error paths are redirected to the same
label to unregister ports, even before registering them (which seems to
be harmless because unregistered ports are ignored, but still). With this
fix, that jump to the label is definitely required, but if the scoped
variant is used, maybe some simple returns would be enough.
