Abdurrahman Hussain 1a7514c6e4 hwmon: (pmbus/adm1266) register the nvmem device after pmbus_do_probe() 
commit 6af713af91 upstream.

adm1266_probe() calls adm1266_config_nvmem() -- which goes on to
devm_nvmem_register() and exposes adm1266_nvmem_read() to userspace --
before pmbus_do_probe() has initialised the per-client PMBus state.

Same latent hazard as the gpio_chip one fixed in the previous patch:
once the nvmem device is registered, gpiolib's nvmem char-dev / sysfs
interface is reachable, and any concurrent read triggers
adm1266_nvmem_read() -> adm1266_nvmem_read_blackbox(), which issues
PMBus traffic that races pmbus_do_probe()'s own device accesses with
no serialisation.

Move adm1266_config_nvmem() down past pmbus_do_probe() so the nvmem
device isn't reachable from userspace until the PMBus state the
nvmem accessors depend on is fully initialised.

README 

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.
