gpio: gpiolib-of: Fix refcount bugs in of_mm_gpiochip_add_data()

We should use of_node_get() when a new reference of device_node
is created. It is noted that the old reference stored in
'mm_gc->gc.of_node' should also be decreased.

This patch is based on the fact that there is a call site in function
'qe_add_gpiochips()' of src file 'drivers\soc\fsl\qe\gpio.c'. In this
function, of_mm_gpiochip_add_data() is contained in an iteration of
for_each_compatible_node() which will automatically increase and
decrease the refcount. So we need additional of_node_get() for the
reference escape in of_mm_gpiochip_add_data().
