3.16.7-ckt15 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me 
know.

------------------

From: Nathan Fontenot <[email protected]>

commit 2222ce0fbbcc4ebfa9995c8d23d72c8239ad712c upstream.

Failure return from dlpar_configure_connector when dlpar adding cpus
results in leaking references to the cpus parent device node. Move the
call to of_node_put() prior to checking the result of
dlpar_configure_connector.

Fixes: 8d5ff320766f ("powerpc/pseries: Make dlpar_configure_connector parent 
node aware")
