[lvc-project] [PATCH net 0/2] fsl/fman: Fix refcount handling of fman-related devices

[Aleksandr Mishin]

The series is intended to fix refcount handling for fman-related "struct
device" objects - the devices are not released upon driver removal or in
the error paths during probe. This leads to device reference leaks.

The device pointers are now saved to struct mac_device and properly handled
in the driver's probe and removal functions.

Compile tested only.
