In v4l2_fwnode_parse_link(), the remote endpoint fwnode reference is
acquired using fwnode_graph_get_remote_endpoint(). This reference is
properly released in the error paths, but it is leaked on the success
path.

Add the missing fwnode_handle_put() before returning 0 to prevent the
reference leak.

Hi Biren,

Thanks for the patch.

The subject prefix should be s/core/fwnode/; please see earlier patches for
hints in the future.

A newline here. I'll address these this time.
