i2c: core: Fix double-free of fwnode in i2c_unregister_device()



Before commit df6d7277 ("i2c: core: Do not dereference fwnode in struct
device"), i2c_unregister_device() only called fwnode_handle_put() on
of_node-s in the form of calling of_node_put(client->dev.of_node).

But after this commit the i2c_client's fwnode now unconditionally gets
fwnode_handle_put() on it.

When the i2c_client has no primary (ACPI / OF) fwnode but it does have
a software fwnode, the software-node will be the primary node and
fwnode_handle_put() will put() it.

But for the software fwnode device_remove_software_node() will also put()
it leading to a double free:

[   82.666962]  <TASK>
[   82.666971]  i2c_unregister_device+0x60/0x90

Fix this by not calling fwnode_handle_put() when the primary fwnode is
a software-node.
