[ Upstream commita9e29dcd8a] mac->phy_node is acquired via of_parse_phandle() in spl2sw_probe() and stored in the mac private data, transferring ownership of the device_node reference to mac. On driver removal, spl2sw_phy_remove() disconnects the PHY but never drops that reference, so each probe-then-remove cycle leaks one of_node refcount per port permanently. Drop the reference after phy_disconnect(). While at it, remove the redundant inner "if (ndev)" check; comm->ndev[i] was just verified non-NULL on the line above. Compile-tested only; no SP7021 hardware available.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
