The device_for_each_child_node() loop in bgx_init_of_phy()
function should have fwnode_handle_put() before break which could
avoid resource leaks. This patch could fix this bug.

Are imperative change descriptions still preferred?

Yes. The commit message should be re-phrased.

More importantly, it looks like the relevant reference is already
released by of_node_put() and the additional fwnode_handle_put() will
cause a reference underflow.

This patch does not look correct to me.

Cheers,

Paolo
