fwnode_find_mii_timestamper() calls of_parse_phandle_with_fixed_args()
but does not decrement the refcount of the obtained OF node. Add an
of_node_put() call before returning from the function.

This bug was detected by an experimental static analysis tool that I am
developing.

Fixes: bc1bee3b87ee ("net: mdiobus: Introduce fwnode_mdiobus_register_phy()")
Signed-off-by: Joe Hattori <joe@pf.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp>

Changes in v2:
- Call of_node_put() after calling register_mii_timestamper() to avoid
  UAF.

Is there no need to put the node when arg.args_count != 1 ?

Yes, should have caught that. Fixed in the v3 patch.
