| |
Use the new of_get_compatible_child() helper to lookup the mdio child node instead of using of_find_compatible_node(), which searches the entire tree and thus can return an unrelated (i.e. non-child) node.
This also addresses a potential use-after-free (e.g. after probe deferral) as the tree-wide helper drops a reference to its first argument (i.e. the node of the device being probed).
