[PATCH v7 2/9] software node: increase the reference of the swnode by its fwnode

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@linaro.org>

Once we allow software nodes to reference other kinds of firmware nodes,
the node in args will no longer necessarily be a software node so bump
its reference count using its fwnode interface.
