The host_node pointer assigned and freed in adv7533_parse_dt()
and later adv7533_attach_dsi() uses the same. Fix this issue
by freeing the host_node in adv7533_attach_dsi() instead of
adv7533_parse_dt().

Changes in v3:
 - Replace __free construct with readable of_node_put().
Changes in v2:
 - Added the tag "Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org" in the sign-off area.
 - Dropped Archit Taneja invalid Mail address

Thanks for the update!

This still looks fragile to me, as afterwards a pointer to a freed
node is left in struct adv7511.host_node. It would be safer to also
clear adv->host_node here.

However, taking a look from a distance, the code looks like:

    static int adv7511_probe(struct i2c_client *i2c)
    {
            ...
            adv7533_parse_dt(dev->of_node, adv7511);
            ...
            if (adv7511->info->has_dsi)
                    ret = adv7533_attach_dsi(adv7511);
            ...
    }

The only reason adv7511.host_node exists is to pass it from
adv7533_parse_dt() to adv7533_attach_dsi().
So what about making this explicit?
  1. Let adv7533_parse_dt() return the host_node or an error pointer,
  2. Pass the host_node as a parameter to adv7533_attach_dsi(),
  3. Call of_node_put() in adv7511_probe() after use.

Or, alternatively, if keeping the node pointer in the adv7511 structure
is preferred, call of_node_put() at .remove() time.
