However, the caller dpaa2_eth_connect_mac() fails to properly release this reference in multiple scenarios. We should call put_device() to decrement reference count properly. As comment of device_find_child() says, 'NOTE: you will need to drop the reference with put_device() after use'. Found by code review.
