x86/amd_node: Fix PCI device reference counting in amd_smn_init()grafted

The local "root" pointer is a temporary variable used during the device
search. Therefore, refcount related to the search iterators should be cleaned
up after the search is complete.

Use the __free() cleanup macro to ensure the refcount is decremented when the
temporary pointer goes out of scope.

Additionally, increment the refcount when caching a root pointer. This ensures
the in-use refcount is separate from the temporary search refcounting.

Finally, drop the redundant "root = NULL" before the second search loop. The
pci_get_class() iterator always decrements the refcount of its "from"
argument, so the first loop can only fall through with "root" already NULL.

+=============================
+Device testing with kselftest
+=============================
+
+
+There are a few different kselftests available for testing devices generically,
+with some overlap in coverage and different requirements. This document aims to
+give an overview of each one.
+
+Note: Paths in this document are relative to the kselftest folder
+(``tools/testing/selftests``).
+
+Device oriented kselftests:
+
+* Devicetree (``dt``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Probe status for devices described in Devicetree
+  * **Requirements**: None
+
+* Error logs (``devices/error_logs``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Error (or more critical) log messages presence coming from any
+    device
+  * **Requirements**: None
+
+* Discoverable bus (``devices/probe``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Presence and probe status of USB or PCI devices that have been
+    described in the reference file
+  * **Requirements**: Manually describe the devices that should be tested in a
+    YAML reference file (see ``devices/probe/boards/google,spherion.yaml`` for
+    an example)
+
+* Exist (``devices/exist``)
+
+  * **Coverage**: Presence of all devices
+  * **Requirements**: Generate the reference (see ``devices/exist/README.rst``
+    for details) on a known-good kernel
+
+Therefore, the suggestion is to enable the error log and devicetree tests on all
+(DT-based) platforms, since they don't have any requirements. Then to greatly
+improve coverage, generate the reference for each platform and enable the exist
+test. The discoverable bus test can be used to verify the probe status of
+specific USB or PCI devices, but is probably not worth it for most cases.
