[PATCH] fsi: master-gpio: Fix reference count leak in probe error path

The function of_node_get() returns a node pointer with its refcount
incremented, but in the error path of the fsi_master_gpio_probe(),
this reference is not released before freeing the master structure,
causing a refcount leak.

Add the missing of_node_put() in the error handling path to properly
release the device tree node reference.
