Hans de Goede 0d82c163e9 ACPI: video: Use acpi_video_device for cooling-dev driver data
commit 172c48caed91a978bca078042222d09baea13717 upstream.

The acpi_video code was storing the acpi_video_device as driver_data
in the acpi_device children of the acpi_video_bus acpi_device.

But the acpi_video driver only binds to the bus acpi_device.
It uses, but does not bind to, the children. Since it is not
the driver it should not be using the driver_data of the children's
acpi_device-s.

Since commit 0d16710146 ("ACPI: bus: Set driver_data to NULL every
time .add() fails") the childen's driver_data ends up getting set
to NULL after a driver fails to bind to the children leading to a NULL
pointer deref in video_get_max_state when registering the cooling-dev:

Fix this by directly using the acpi_video_device as devdata for
the cooling-device, which avoids the need to set driver-data on
the children at all.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
