Subject: net: dpaa: fix device leak when querying time stamp info
From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>
commit 3fa840230f534385b34a4f39c8dd313fbe723f05 upstream.
Make sure to drop the reference to the ptp device taken by
of_find_device_by_node() when querying the time stamping capabilities.
Note that holding a reference to the ptp device does not prevent its
driver data from going away.
Fixes: 17ae0b0ee9db ("dpaa_eth: add the get_ts_info interface for ethtool")
