As follow-up to "dt: introduce of_get_child_by_name to get child node by
name." patch, This patch removes some of the code duplication in the
driver by replacing it with of_get_child_by_name instead.

You mustn't drop the reference until after you've finished with np, as
you have written it the node could be freed before you call
of_platform_device_create().
