fsl/man: Inherit parent device and of_node

and was later addressed by this patch set:

Even with these errors printed, all is working fine, it's just the
second probing that fails. Adding the latter patches or reverting
the one above makes the errors prints dissapear.

Looking at the above patch seriers I see it is in state Accepted and has been there
since 2017-10-16
That seems like a awful long to wait in before getting into Linux, is there something
holding these patches back ?

They are in Linux, have been since October 16th. But at the moment,
they are only in v4.15, not v4.14.

These patches probably don't fit the stable rules, for getting them
added to v4.14.

What is needed is a minimal fix. Or just wait until Sunday, when there
is a good chance v4.15 will be released.
