Summary
net: dsa: ar9331: register the mdiobus under devres
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: dsa: ar9331: register the mdiobus under devres

As explained in commits: 74b6d7d13307 ("net: dsa: realtek: register the MDIO bus under devres") 5135e96a3dd2 ("net: dsa: don't allocate the slavemiibus using devres")

mdiobusfree() will panic when called from devmmdiobusfree() <- devresreleaseall() <- _devicereleasedriver(), and that mdiobus was not previously unregistered.

The ar9331 is an MDIO device, so the initial set of constraints that I thought would cause this (I2C or SPI buses which call ->remove on ->shutdown) do not apply. But there is one more which applies here.

If the DSA master itself is on a bus that calls ->remove from ->shutdown (like dpaa2-eth, which is on the fsl-mc bus), there is a device link between the switch and the DSA master, and devicelinksunbind_consumers() will unbind the ar9331 switch driver on shutdown.

So the same treatment must be applied to all DSA switch drivers, which is: either use devres for both the mdiobus allocation and registration, or don't use devres at all.

The ar9331 driver doesn't have a complex code structure for mdiobus removal, so just replace ofmdiobusregister with the devres variant in order to be all-devres and ensure that we don't free a still-registered bus.
