Subject: [PATCH 4.13 26/28] staging: greybus: spilib: fix use-after-free after deregistration

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

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

From: Johan Hovold <johan@...nel.org>

commit 770b03c2ca4aa44d226cf248f86aa23e546147d0 upstream.

Remove erroneous spi_master_put() after controller deregistration which
would access the already freed spi controller.

Note that spi_unregister_master() drops our only controller reference.

Fixes: ba3e67001b42 ("greybus: SPI: convert to a gpbridge driver")
