6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Johan Hovold johan@kernel.org
commit f401671e90ccc26b3022f177c4156a429c024f6c upstream.
Make sure to drop the reference taken to the mbox platform device when looking up its driver data.
Note that holding a reference to a device does not prevent its driver data from going away so there is no point in keeping the reference.
