commit 1c9be13846c0b2abc2480602f8ef421360e1ad9e upstream.
In current design, usb role class driver will get usb_role_switch parent's
module reference after the user get usb_role_switch device and put the
reference after the user put the usb_role_switch device. However, the
parent device of usb_role_switch may be removed before the user put the
usb_role_switch. If so, then, NULL pointer issue will be met when the user
put the parent module's reference.
This will save the module pointer in structure of usb_role_switch. Then,
we don't need to find module by iterating long relations.

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.
