[PATCH] dpaa2-eth: put MAC endpoint device on disconnect

[Guangshuo Li]

fsl_mc_get_endpoint() returns the MAC endpoint device with a reference
taken through device_find_child(). The Ethernet connect path stores that
device in mac->mc_dev and keeps it for the lifetime of the connected MAC
object.

However, the disconnect path only disconnects and closes the MAC before
freeing the dpaa2_mac object. It does not drop the endpoint device
reference stored in mac->mc_dev, so every successful connect leaks that
device reference when the MAC is later disconnected.

Drop the endpoint device reference after closing the MAC and before
freeing the dpaa2_mac object.
