[PATCH] powerpc/pseries/papr-hvpipe: fix NULL dereference in handle creation

[Guangshuo Li <lgs201920130244@gmail.com>]

papr_hvpipe_dev_create_handle() transfers ownership of src_info with
retain_and_null_ptr(src_info) after anon_inode_getfile() succeeds.
However, retain_and_null_ptr() clears src_info immediately, and the
function then still dereferences src_info in the subsequent list_add().

Store the transferred pointer in a separate variable and use that for
the list insertion.

Manually identified during code review.

Fixes: 6d3789d347a7af5c4b0b2da3af47b8d9da607ab2 ("papr-hvpipe: convert papr_hvpipe_dev_create_handle() to FD_PREPARE()")
