of_partition() calls of_node_get() on the parent device node at the
beginning of the function, storing the reference in 'partitions_np'.
This reference is leaked in two paths:

1. The compatibility check at the top of the function returns 0
   without releasing partitions_np when the node exists but is not
   "fixed-partitions" compatible.

2. The function returns 1 at the end after successfully processing
   all partitions without releasing partitions_np.

Fix both leaks by adding of_node_put(partitions_np) on each path.
