7.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Guangshuo Li <lgs201920130244@gmail.com>

commit 53597deca0e38c30e6cd4ba2114fa42d2bcd85bb upstream.

imx8qxp_pxl2dpi_get_available_ep_from_port() returns ERR_PTR()
on errors. imx8qxp_pxl2dpi_find_next_bridge() stores its return
value in a __free(device_node) variable before checking IS_ERR().
When the function returns on the error path, the cleanup action calls
of_node_put() on the ERR_PTR() value.

Do not let a device_node cleanup variable hold error pointers. Change
imx8qxp_pxl2dpi_get_available_ep_from_port() to return an int and pass
the endpoint node through an output argument. Initialize the output
argument to NULL so callers hold either NULL on error paths or a valid
device_node pointer on successful path.

Fixes: ceea3f7806a10 ("drm/bridge: imx8qxp-pxl2dpi: simplify put of device_node pointers")
