[PATCH 20/34] iio: inkern: only relase the device node when done with it

'of_node_put()' can potentially release the memory pointed to by
'iiospec.np' which would leave us with an invalid pointer (and we would
still pass it in 'of_xlate()'). As such, we can only release the node
after we are done with it.
