of_find_compatible_node() increments the node's refcount, and it must be
decremented again with a call to of_node_put() when the pointer is no
longer required to avoid leaking the resource.

Instead of adding the missing calls to of_node_put() in all execution
paths, use the cleanup attribute for 'arm_timer' by means of the
__free() macro, which automatically calls of_node_put() when the
variable goes out of scope.
