4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit c090959b9dd8c87703e275079aa4b4a824ba3f8e upstream.

Make sure to drop the reference to the parent device taken by
class_find_device() after populating the bus.
