dpaa2-eth: Fix device reference count leak in MAC endpoint handling
The fsl_mc_get_endpoint() function uses device_find_child() for
localization, which implicitly calls get_device() to increment the
device's reference count before returning the pointer. However, the
caller dpaa2_eth_connect_mac() fails to properly release this
reference in multiple scenarios. We should call put_device() to
decrement reference count properly.
As comment of device_find_child() says, 'NOTE: you will need to drop
the reference with put_device() after use'.
