In stratix10_svc_init function, fw_np is obtained by calling of_find_node_by_name(), np is obtained by calling of_find_matching_node(), and the reference counts of those two device_nodes, fw_np and np, are increased. But when the function exits, only of_node_put is called on np, and fw_np's reference count is leaked.
