Subject: [PATCH] PM / devfreq: exynos-ppmu: Fix refcount leak in
of_get_devfreq_events

of_get_child_by_name() returns a node pointer with refcount incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when done. This function only calls of_node_put() in normal path, missing it in error paths.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.
