4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit e5834ac22948169bbd7c45996d8d4905edd20f5e upstream.
Use the nfc- rather than phy-device in firmware-management code that
needs a valid struct device.
This specifically fixes a NULL-pointer dereference in
nfcmrvl_fw_dnld_init() during registration when the underlying tty is
one end of a Unix98 pty.
Note that the driver still uses the phy device for any debugging, which
is fine for now.
Fixes: 3194c6870158 ("NFC: nfcmrvl: add firmware download support")
