-Subject: [PATCH] stmmac: fix setting of driver data in stmmac_dvr_probe
-
-Commit 803f8fc46274b ("stmmac: move driver data setting into
-stmmac_dvr_probe") mistakenly set priv and not priv->dev as
-driver data. This meant that the remove, resume and suspend
-callbacks that fetched and tried to use this data would most
-likely explode. Fix the issue by using the correct variable.

-Fixes: 803f8fc46274b ("stmmac: move driver data setting into stmmac_dvr_probe")
