net: mdio: get/put device node during (un)registration
The __of_mdiobus_register() function was storing the device node in dev.of_node without increasing its reference count. It implicitly relied on the caller to maintain the allocated node until the mdiobus was unregistered. Now, __of_mdiobus_register() will acquire the node before assigning it, and of_mdiobus_unregister_callback() will be called at the end of mdio_unregister(). Drivers can now release the node immediately after MDIO registration. Some of them are already doing that even before this patch.
