From: David Daney <david.daney at cavium.com>

commit b7d3e3d3d21a ("net: thunderx: Don't leak phy device references
on -EPROBE_DEFER condition.") incorrectly moved the call to
of_node_put() outside of the loop.  Under normal loop exit, the node
has already had of_node_put() called, so the extra call results in:

Go back to the previous (correct) code that only did the extra
of_node_put() call on early exit from the loop.
