mtd: parsers: ofpart: fix OF node refcount leak in parse_fixed_partitions()
of_get_child_by_name() returns a node pointer with refcount incremented, which must be released with of_node_put() when done. However, in parse_fixed_partitions(), when dedicated is true (i.e., a "partitions" subnode was found), the ofpart_node obtained from of_get_child_by_name() is never released on any code path. Add of_node_put(ofpart_node) calls on all exit paths when dedicated is true to fix the reference count leak. This bug was detected by our static analysis tool.
