xgene_pcie_probe() takes an extra reference to the platform device's OF
node and stores it in port->node. The driver never drops the reference,
so every probe attempt that reaches this point leaks it, including when
CSR mapping or a later initialization step fails.

The platform device already holds the node reference, and port->node is
only dereferenced synchronously by xgene_pcie_setup() before probe
returns. Store the borrowed pointer instead of taking another reference.

This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by
manual source review.
