[PATCH] coccinelle: put_device: Include of_node_put to avoid false positives

From: Deepak R Varma
Date: Fri Feb 17 2023 - 13:11:32 EST


The node reference increased by of_find_device_by_node() can also be
released by using a call to of_node_put(). Hence when this exists, the
script should not trigger a warning, which otherwise will be a false
positive.
Also, improve the warning message to include of_node_put too is missing.
