dpaa2-switch: Fix device reference count leak in MAC endpoint handling
The fsl_mc_get_endpoint() function uses device_find_child() for localization, which implicitly calls get_device() to increment the device's reference count before returning the pointer. However, the caller dpaa2_switch_port_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.
