Subject: [PATCH 4.12 07/52] fsl/man: Inherit parent device and of_node

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

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

From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit a1a50c8e4c241a505b7270e1a3c6e50d94e794b1 ]

Junote Cai reported that he was not able to get a DSA setup involving the
Freescale DPAA/FMAN driver to work and narrowed it down to
of_find_net_device_by_node(). This function requires the network device's
device reference to be correctly set which is the case here, though we have
lost any device_node association there.

The problem is that dpaa_eth_add_device() allocates a "dpaa-ethernet" platform
device, and later on dpaa_eth_probe() is called but SET_NETDEV_DEV() won't be
propagating &pdev->dev.of_node properly. Fix this by inherenting both the parent
device and the of_node when dpaa_eth_add_device() creates the platform device.
