When platform_get_drvdata() returns NULL and probe defers, the error
path jumps to the 'depopulate' label, skipping put_device() for the
reference acquired by of_find_device_by_node(). This extra reference
prevents the child platform device from being freed when
of_platform_depopulate() is called, resulting in memory leaks reported
by kmemleak:

  unreferenced object 0xffff0000c92c1480 (size 64):
    comm "kworker/u16:2", pid 50, jiffies 4294895789
