I guess it depends on how you look at it. I'm fixing the child-node
lookup which just happens to broken in several ways: tree-wide search,
parent-node put-imbalance and node leaks in both the error and
success paths.

Fixing that in two or even three patches seems a bit excessive,
especially as the first patch would in a sense be broken as the
of_get_child_by_name() does indeed (also) return a refcounted node. And
furthermore, this broken lookup, in all of its aspects, was introduced
by a single commit.

But if you insist, I'll split it up of course.

Thanks,
Johan
