4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@xxxxxxxxx>
commit e7c9a3d9e432200fd4c17855c2c23ac784d6e833 upstream.
The Octeon driver calls into PHYLIB which now checks for
net_device->dev.parent, so make sure we do set it before calling into
any MDIO/PHYLIB related function.
Fixes: ec988ad78ed6 ("phy: Don't increment MDIO bus refcount unless it's a different owner")
Reported-by: Aaro Koskinen <aaro.koskinen@xxxxxx>
