of: fix memory leak related to safe_name()

commit d9fc8807 upstream.

Fix a memory leak resulting from memory allocation in safe_name().
This patch fixes all call sites of safe_name().

Mathieu Malaterre reported the memory leak on boot:

On my PowerMac device-tree would generate a duplicate name:

[    0.023043] device-tree: Duplicate name in PowerPC,G4@0, renamed to "l2-cache#1"

in this case a newly allocated name is generated by `safe_name`. However
in this case it is never deallocated.

The bug was found using kmemleak reported as:

unreferenced object 0xdf532e60 (size 32):
  comm "swapper", pid 1, jiffies 4294892300 (age 1993.532s)
