usb: typec: altmode should keep reference to parent
[ Upstream commit befab3a278c59db0cc88c8799638064f6d3fd6f8 ]
The altmode device release refers to its parent device, but without keeping
a reference to it.
When registering the altmode, get a reference to the parent and put it in
the release function.
Before this fix, when using CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE, we see issues
like this:
