[PATCH] ASoC: simple-card: Fix refcount underflow
From: Daniel Baluta
Date: Sat Feb 16 2019 - 05:09:54 EST
of_get_child_by_name() takes a reference we'll need to drop
later so when we substitute in top we need to take a reference
as well as just assigning.
Without this patch we hit the following error:

This patch is based on an earlier version posted by Kuninori Morimoto
and commit message includes explanations from Mark Brown.
