Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] spi: spi-axi: fix potential use-after-free after deregistration

Take an extra reference to the controller before deregistering it to
prevent use-after-free in the interrupt handler in case an interrupt
fires before the line is disabled.

Fixes: b1353d1c1d45 ("spi: Add Analog Devices AXI SPI Engine controller support")
Acked-by: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@...afoo.de>

v2
 - Add Fixes tag and update commit message to reflect that this is a
   potential issue also for this driver (and not just for drivers using
   shared interrupts) as noted by Lars-Peter.
