[PATCH 4.19 473/639] net: pasemi: fix an use-after-free in pasemi_mac_phy_init()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Jan 24 2020 - 06:26:21 EST


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.
