Subject: [PATCH stable 4.9] net: mdio-mux: fix unbalanced put_device

From: Corentin Labbe <clabbe.montjoie@...il.com>

commit 60f786525032432af1b7d9b8935cb12936244ccd upstream

mdio_mux_uninit() call put_device (unconditionally) because of
of_mdio_find_bus() in mdio_mux_init.
But of_mdio_find_bus is only called if mux_bus is empty.
If mux_bus is set, mdio_mux_uninit will print a "refcount_t: underflow"
trace.

This patch add a get_device in the other branch of "if (mux_bus)".

Note: this patch did not get any fixes tag, but it does fix issues
introduced by  fdf3b78df4d2 ("mdio: mux: Correct mdio_mux_init error
path issues").

Thanks!
