Fix child-node lookup during probe, which ended up searching the whole device tree depth-first starting at the parent rather than just matching on its children.
To make things worse, the parent display node was also prematurely freed.
Note that the display and timings node references are never put after a successful dt-initialisation so the nodes would leak on later probe deferrals and on driver unbind.
