In tpg110_get_modes(), the return value of drm_mode_duplicate() is
assigned to mode and there is a dereference of it in tpg110_get_modes(),
which could lead to a NULL pointer dereference on failure of
drm_mode_duplicate().
Fix this bug by adding a check of mode.
This bug was found by a static analyzer. The analysis employs
differential checking to identify inconsistent security operations
(e.g., checks or kfrees) between two code paths and confirms that the
inconsistent operations are not recovered in the current function or
the callers, so they constitute bugs.
Note that, as a bug found by static analysis, it can be a false
positive or hard to trigger. Multiple researchers have cross-reviewed
the bug.
Builds with CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_TPO_TPG110=m show no new warnings,
and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code.
