The device_for_each_child_node() loop requires calls to
fwnode_handle_put() upon early returns to decrement the refcount of
the child node and avoid leaking memory.

There are multiple early returns within that loop in
adt7475_fan_pwm_config(), but fwnode_handle_put() is never called.
Instead of adding the missing calls, the scoped version of the loop can
be used to simplify the code and avoid mistakes in the future if new
early returns are added.

This issue was recently introduced and it does not affect old kernels
that do not support the scoped variant.
