This looks quite strange.  If the loop exits normally, then there is a put
on something on which there was no get.  Is the value NULL in tihs case,
and so the of_node_put does nothing?  I guess that then there is no
problem, but it's not clear that the code is very nice either.

But I think that the real of_node_put problems are covered by another
rule, so we can drop this one, as you suggested.
