coresight: Clear the connection field properly
[ Upstream commit 2af89ebacf299b7fba5f3087d35e8a286ec33706 ]
coresight devices track their connections (output connections) and
hold a reference to the fwnode. When a device goes away, we walk through
the devices on the coresight bus and make sure that the references
are dropped. This happens both ways:
a) For all output connections from the device, drop the reference to
the target device via coresight_release_platform_data()
b) Iterate over all the devices on the coresight bus and drop the
reference to fwnode if *this* device is the target of the output
connection, via coresight_remove_conns()->coresight_remove_match().
However, the coresight_remove_match() doesn't clear the fwnode field,
after dropping the reference, this causes use-after-free and
additional refcount drops on the fwnode.
e.g., if we have two devices, A and B, with a connection, A -> B.
If we remove B first, B would clear the reference on B, from A
via coresight_remove_match(). But when A is removed, it still has
a connection with fwnode still pointing to B. Thus it tries to drops
the reference in coresight_release_platform_data(), raising the bells
like :
