4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Guenter Roeck <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit e4b28b3c3a405b251fa25db58abe1512814a680a upstream.
It doesn't make sense to have /sys/firmware/vpd if the device is not
instantiated, so tie its lifetime to the device.
Fixes: 049a59db34eb ("firmware: Google VPD sysfs driver")
