When external bridges are attached with DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR,
the panel bridge may also get the same flag, but in the .attach()
callback for the panel bridge a device link is added only when this
flag is not present; To make things worse, the .detach() callback
tries to delete the device link unconditionally and without checking
if it was created in the first place, crashing the kernel with a NULL
pointer kernel panic upon calling panel_bridge_detach().
Fix that by moving the device_link_add() call before checking if the
DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR flag is present.
