This is caused by:

  platform_device_register()
   -> platform_device_unregister(to_platform_device(dev))
	freeing struct device
   -> of_node_clear_flag(dev->of_node, ...)
	writing to the freed device

The issue is solved by increasing the reference count before calling
of_platform_device_destroy() so freeing the device is postponed after
the call.

README

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
