The call to of_find_compatible_node returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented thus it must be explicitly decremented after the last
usage.

Detected by coccinelle with the following warnings:
./drivers/cpufreq/armada-8k-cpufreq.c:187:1-7: ERROR: missing of_node_put; acquired a node pointer with refcount incremented on line 130, but without a corresponding object release within this function.
./drivers/cpufreq/armada-8k-cpufreq.c:191:1-7: ERROR: missing of_node_put; acquired a node pointer with refcount incremented on line 130, but without a corresponding object release within this function.

Would another null pointer check be safer for this memory allocation?

I haven't received the cover-letter and patch 4/7 (because the tags in that
commit were incorrect). I have applied all the 7 patches to my cpufreq tree
though.

Thanks.
