[PATCH v4] cpufreq/pasemi: fix an use-after-free in pas_cpufreq_cpu_init()

[PATCH v4] cpufreq/pasemi: fix an use-after-free in pas_cpufreq_cpu_init()

[Wen Yang]

The cpu variable is still being used in the of_get_property() call
after the of_node_put() call, which may result in use-after-free.

v4: restore the blank line.

v2: clean up the code according to the advice of viresh.

I don't find it restored in the below code.
