Make sure to drop the reference taken to the canvas platform device when
looking up its driver data.
Note that holding a reference to a device does not prevent its driver
data from going away so there is no point in keeping the reference.
Also note that commit
28f851e6afa8 ("soc: amlogic: canvas: add missing
put_device() call in meson_canvas_get()") fixed the leak in a lookup
error path, but the reference is still leaking on success.
