Subject: [PATCH net] mlxsw: core: Fix use-after-free when flashing firmware
during init
When the switch driver (e.g., mlxsw_spectrum) determines it needs to
flash a new firmware version it resets the ASIC after the flashing
process. The bus driver (e.g., mlxsw_pci) then registers itself again
with mlxsw_core which means (among other things) that the device
registers itself again with the hwmon subsystem again.
Since the device was registered with the hwmon subsystem using
devm_hwmon_device_register_with_groups(), then the old hwmon device
(registered before the flashing) was never unregistered and was
referencing stale data, resulting in a use-after free.
Fix by removing reliance on device managed APIs in mlxsw_hwmon_init().
Fixes: c86d62cc410c ("mlxsw: spectrum: Reset FW after flash")
