[PATCH 4.9 168/271] net: pasemi: fix an use-after-free in pasemi_mac_phy_init()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Wen Yang <wen.yang99@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit faf5577f2498cea23011b5c785ef853ded22700b ]

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")
