Subject: [PATCH 2/2] device property: fix UAF in device_get_next_child_node()

fwnode_get_next_child_node() always drops reference to the node passed
as the "child" argument, which makes "child" pointer no longer valid
and we can not use it to scan the secondary node in case there are no
more children in primary one.

Also, it is not obvious whether it is safe to pass children of the
secondary node to fwnode_get_next_child_node() called on the primary
node in subsequent calls to device_get_next_child_node().

Fix the issue by checking whether the child node passed in is indeed a
child of primary or secondary node, and do not call
fwnode_get_next_child_node() for the wrong parent node. Also set the
"child" to NULL after unsuccessful call to fwnode_get_next_child_node()
on primary node to make sure secondary node's children are scanned from
the beginning.

Fixes: 114dbb4fa7c4 ("drivers property: When no children in primary, try secondary")
