[PATCH v3 linux-next] leds: powernv: replace of_node_put to __free

Use __free for device_node values, and thus drop calls to
of_node_put.

The variable attribute __free adds a scope based cleanup to
the device node. The goal is to reduce memory management issues
in the kernel code.

The of_node_put calls were removed, and the
for_each_available_child_of_node was replaced to the equivalent
for_each_available_child_of_node_scoped which use the __free.

Hello, 
Thank you for the feedback.

The line-break strategy was fixed, and now it is according to
the top one suggested.

The __free is a wrapper to __attribute__((__cleanup__())) so 
the variavel definition is needed. And according to Julia, it 
is preferred to combine the declaration and the allocation to 
ensure that there is no return that can occur after the declaration, 
but before the allocation (or more precisely the initialization).  
If there is no other option for the initialization of the variable, 
then it should be NULL.
