Commit 5ea6b1702781 ("drm/panel: Add prepare_prev_first flag to drm_panel") introduced an access to the bridge pointer in the devm_drm_panel_bridge_add_typed() function. However, due to the unusual ERR_PTR check when getting that pointer, the pointer access is done even though the pointer might be an error pointer. Rework the function for a more traditional design that will return immediately if it gets an ERR_PTR so that we never access the pointer in that case.
