Subject: generic: fix kernel panic on existing mac-address node
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=29a3967e61334d0c6a1a7d391f0e751272d77b1d;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fdangole.git

generic: fix kernel panic on existing mac-address node

Calling free for the OF property can result in a kernel panic, as the
buffer in question might be referenced elsewhere. Also, it is not
removed from the tree.

Always allocate a new property and updating the tree with it fixes both
issues.

Fixes commit 91a52f22a13d ("treewide: backport support for nvmem on non platform devices")
