Subject: [PATCH] software node: balance refcount for managed software nodes

software_node_notify(), on KOBJ_REMOVE drops the refcount twice on managed
software nodes, thus leading to underflow errors. Balance the refcount by
bumping it in the device_create_managed_software_node() function.

The error [1] was encountered after adding a .shutdown() op to our
fsl-mc-bus driver.
