[PATCH] drm/of: free the iterator object on failure

When bailing out due to the sanity check the iterator value needs to be
freed because the early return prevents for_each_child_of_node() from
doing the dereference itself.

Daniel's email[1] made me take a look at this function and it appears
that for_each_child_of_node()'s interface had caused a bad bug fix due
to the hidden reference counting in the iterator.
