The function calls of_parse_phandle() to get a device node, which increments the reference count of the node. However, the function fails to call of_node_put() to decrement the reference. This leads to a reference count leak.
This is found by static analysis and similar to the commit a508e33956b5 ("ipmi:ipmb: Fix refcount leak in ipmi_ipmb_probe")
