[PATCH] net: pasemi: fix an use-after-free in pasemi_mac_phy_init()
From: Wen Yang
Date: Sat Jul 06 2019 - 00:25:38 EST
The phy_dn variable is still being used in of_phy_connect() after the
of_node_put() call, which may result in use-after-free.
Fixes: 1dd2d06c0459 ("net: Rework pasemi_mac driver to use of_mdio infrastructure")
