drm/msm/adreno: Fix a reference leak in a6xx_gpu_init()

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/msm/adreno: Fix a reference leak in a6xx_gpu_init()

In a6xx_gpu_init(), node is obtained via of_parse_phandle().
While there was a manual of_node_put() at the end of the
common path, several early error returns would bypass this call,
resulting in a reference leak.
Fix this by using the __free(device_node) cleanup handler to
release the reference when the variable goes out of scope.
