[PATCH 1/1] arm: devtree: fix missing device_node cleanup

[Vincenzo Mezzela]

Device node `cpus` is allocated but never released using `of_node_put`.

This patch introduces the __free attribute for `cpus` device_node that
automatically handle the cleanup of the resource by adding a call to
`of_node_put` at the end of the current scope. This enhancement aims to
mitigate memory management issues associated with forgetting to release
the resources.
