From: Rasmus Villemoes <rasmus.villemoes@prevas.dk> [ Upstream commit e925e0cd2a705aaacb0b907bb3691fcac3a973a4 ] ugeth is the netdiv_priv() part of the netdevice. Accessing the memory pointed to by ugeth (such as done by ucc_geth_memclean() and the two of_node_puts) after free_netdev() is thus use-after-free.
