Subject: [PATCH 0/2] device property: fix for couple of bugs

Hi,

The fwnode->secondary is causing problems when a property_set is
providing the primary fwnode.

Both of these fixes are a bit clumsy looking IMO, but I didn't have
better ideas. I think the second one fixing the use-after-free bug
should ideally be taken care of in set_secondary_fwnode() instead of
device_remove_property_set(), but I didn't have any ideas how to do
that.

Heikki Krogerus (2):
  device property: fwnode->secondary may contain ERR_PTR(-ENODEV)
  device property: fix for a case of use-after-free
