powerpc/powernv/npu: Fix reference leak
Since 902bdc57451c, get_pci_dev() calls pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot(). This has the effect of incrementing the reference count of the PCI device, as explained in drivers/pci/search.c: * Given a PCI domain, bus, and slot/function number, the desired PCI * device is located in the list of PCI devices. If the device is * found, its reference count is increased and this function returns a * pointer to its data structure. The caller must decrement the * reference count by calling pci_dev_put(). If no device is found, * %NULL is returned. Nothing was done to call pci_dev_put() and the reference count of GPU and NPU PCI devices rockets up. A natural way to fix this would be to teach the callers about the change, so that they call pci_dev_put() when done with the pointer. This turns out to be quite intrusive, as it affects many paths in npu-dma.c, pci-ioda.c and vfio_pci_nvlink2.c. Also, the issue appeared in 4.16 and some affected code got moved around since then: it would be problematic to backport the fix to stable releases. All that code never cared for reference counting anyway. Call pci_dev_put() from get_pci_dev() to revert to the previous behavior.
