Make sure to drop the reference taken by of_phy_find_device() during
probe on probe errors and on driver unbind.
Also drop the of_node reference taken by of_parse_phandle() in the same
path.

When I first wrote this code, I had a lot of trouble getting the PHY to
re-probe when the driver was unloaded and reloaded, and it was because
of some odd problems with get/put of of_nodes.
Since I know that you didn't test this driver on real hardware, I have
to test these patches myself before I can ACK them.
