Ok, here's combined patch for both. I came up with slightly
shorter and (IMHO) nicer variant for -EINVAL assignment than
in the first version.

[PATCH] powerpc & microblaze: add missing of_node_put to error handling

While reviewing some microblaze patches a while ago, I noticed
a suspicious error handling in of_irq_map_one(), which turned
out to be a copy from arch/powerpc. Grant Likely
<grant.likely at secretlab.ca> confirmed that this is a real bug.

Merge error handling paths using goto with the normal return
path.

Powerppc compile tested.
