But rather than add the of_node_put(), it would be simpler to just use of_root directly, then it doesn't need an of_node_put() at all. But then look closer. To begin with model is assigned "Unknown", but then unconditionally overwritten by the of_get_property() call. So that's a waste of space. And then if there's no model property of_get_property() will return NULL, and then the model + strlen("xes,") would oops. And all of that just to print the model at boot, which is not really necessary, anyone who cares can look it up in /proc/device-tree after the system has booted. So please just remove the lookup and printing of model entirely. cheers

of_find_node_by_path() returns remote device nodepointer with refcount incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when done. Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.
