Current kernel will report NULL pointer dereference with following back trace: interrupt_cnt_enable_write from counter_comp_u8_store+0xc0/0xf4 counter_comp_u8_store from dev_attr_store+0x24/0x30 dev_attr_store from sysfs_kf_write+0x48/0x54 sysfs_kf_write from kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x128/0x1c8 kernfs_fop_write_iter from vfs_write+0x124/0x1b4 vfs_write from ksys_write+0x88/0xe0 ksys_write from sys_write+0x18/0x1c sys_write from ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c Add missing dev_set_drvdata() to fix it.
