drivers/of: Validate device node in __unflatten_device_tree()
@mynodes is set to NULL when __unflatten_device_tree() is called to unflatten device sub-tree in PCI hot add scenario on PowerPC PowerNV platform. Marking @mynodes detached unconditionally causes kernel crash as below backtrace shows: Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000000 Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000b26f64 cpu 0x0: Vector: 300 (Data Access) at [c000003fcc7cf740] pc: c000000000b26f64: __unflatten_device_tree+0xf4/0x190 lr: c000000000b26f40: __unflatten_device_tree+0xd0/0x190 sp: c000003fcc7cf9c0 msr: 900000000280b033 dar: 0 dsisr: 40000000 current = 0xc000003fcc281680 paca = 0xc00000000ff00000 softe: 0 irq_happened: 0x01 pid = 2724, comm = sh Linux version 4.7.0-gavin-07754-g92a6836 (gwshan@gwshan) (gcc version \ 4.9.3 (Buildroot 2016.02-rc2-00093-g5ea3bce) ) #539 SMP Mon Aug 1 \ 12:40:29 AEST 2016 enter ? for help [c000003fcc7cfa50] c000000000b27060 of_fdt_unflatten_tree+0x60/0x90 [c000003fcc7cfaa0] c0000000004c6288 pnv_php_set_slot_power_state+0x118/0x440 [c000003fcc7cfb80] c0000000004c6a10 pnv_php_enable+0xc0/0x170 [c000003fcc7cfbd0] c0000000004c4d80 power_write_file+0xa0/0x190 [c000003fcc7cfc50] c0000000004be93c pci_slot_attr_store+0x3c/0x60 [c000003fcc7cfc70] c0000000002d3fd4 sysfs_kf_write+0x94/0xc0 [c000003fcc7cfcb0] c0000000002d2c30 kernfs_fop_write+0x180/0x260 [c000003fcc7cfd00] c000000000230fe0 __vfs_write+0x40/0x190 [c000003fcc7cfd90] c000000000232278 vfs_write+0xc8/0x240 [c000003fcc7cfde0] c000000000233d90 SyS_write+0x60/0x110 [c000003fcc7cfe30] c000000000009524 system_call+0x38/0x108 This avoids the kernel crash by marking @mynodes detached only when @mynodes is dereferencing valid device node in __unflatten_device_tree().
