Subject: [PATCH 4.4 232/312] power_supply: tps65217-charger: Fix NULL deref during property export

From: Marcin Niestroj <m.niestroj@...nn-global.com>

commit 362761299eea7dfc3a4870551de36e08758b9254 upstream.

This bug leads to:

[    1.906411] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000c
[    1.914878] pgd = c0004000
[    1.917786] [0000000c] *pgd=00000000

[    1.958937] LR is at tps65217_ac_get_property+0x10/0x28

Driver was trying to use drv_data in property get handler. However drv_data
was not set, so it caused NULL pointer dereference. This patch properly
sets drv_data during probe by power_supply_config parameter, so the
property get handler works as desired.
