Subject: [PATCH 1/1] iommu/arm-smmu-qcom: Fix use-after-free issue in qcom_smmu_create()

Currently, during arm smmu probe, struct arm_smmu_device pointer
is allocated. The pointer is reallocated to a new struct qcom_smmu in
qcom_smmu_create() with devm_krealloc() which frees the smmu device
after copying the data into the new pointer.

The freed pointer is then passed again in devm_of_platform_populate()
inside qcom_smmu_create() which causes a use-after-free issue.

Fix the use-after-free issue by reassigning the old pointer to
the new pointer where the struct was copied by devm_krealloc().
