mtk_drm_bind() can fail, in which case drm_dev_put() is called,
destroying the drm_device object. However a pointer to it was still
being held in the private object, and that pointer would be passed along
to DRM in mtk_drm_sys_prepare() if a suspend were triggered at that
point, resulting in a panic. Clean the pointer when destroying the
object in the error path to prevent this from happening.

Sorry for not noticing that in v1, but I've rechecked this function and, while this
commit does indeed actually solve the described issue, I think it's incomplete.

A few lines before, we have a loop that sets

		private->all_drm_private[i]->drm = drm;

...so here you should do...

	private->drm = NULL;

	while (i--) /* a for loop will also do, your choice */
		private->all_drm_private[i]->drm = NULL;
		
That makes sure that you cleanup *everything* :-)

Cheers,
Angelo
