commit c592fafb upstream. The thermal child device reuses the parent MFD-device device-tree node when registering a thermal zone, but did not take a reference to the node. This leads to a reference imbalance, and potential use-after-free, when the node reference is dropped by the platform-bus device destructor (once for the child and later again for the parent). Fix this by dropping any reference already held to a device-tree node and getting a reference to the parent's node which will be balanced on reprobe or on platform-device release, whichever comes first. Note that simply clearing the of_node pointer on probe errors and on driver unbind would not allow the use of device-managed resources as specifically thermal_zone_of_sensor_unregister() claims that a valid device-tree node pointer is needed during deregistration (even if it currently does not seem to use it).
