[PATCH v2 2/6] ASoC: aoa: Use helper function for_each_child_of_node_scoped()

The for_each_child_of_node() function is used to iterate over all child 
nodes of a device tree node.  During each iteration, it retrieves a 
pointer to the child node via of_get_next_child() and automatically 
increments the node's reference count (of_node_get()). Each call to 
of_get_next_child() increases the reference count (refcount) of the 
returned child node, ensuring that the node is not freed while in use.
for_each_child_of_node() increments the child node's reference count in 
each iteration but does not decrement it automatically.
If of_node_put() is not called manually, the reference count will never 
reach zero, resulting in a memory leak of the node.

In function i2sbus_add_dev, it used device_node out of 
for_each_child_of_node(){},  it need to add a new call to 
of_node_put(sound) to reference count.

In function i2cbus_probe, it used device_node in 
for_each_child_of_node(){}, used for_each_child_of_node_scoped() is 
better than for_each_child_of_node().
