Subject: [PATCH] power: supply: ltc2941: Fix of_node reference leak in
 ltc294x_i2c_probe()

ltc294x_i2c_probe() takes a reference on the device node with
of_node_get(), but never drops it, so the reference leaks on every
return path, including the success path.

The node is only used to read the battery properties and to set
info->supply_desc.name, so release it after its last use and also on
the lltc,resistor-sense error path.
