Subject: [PATCH 4.9 025/177] tools/testing/nvdimm: fix nfit_test shutdown crash

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

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

From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@...el.com>


[ Upstream commit 8b06b884cd98f7ec8b5028680b99fabfb7b3e192 ]

Keep the nfit_test instances alive until after nfit_test_teardown(), as
we may be doing resource lookups until the final un-registrations have
completed. This fixes crashes of the form.

 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000038
