In the ge_b850v3_lvds_create_connector function, the check on the existence of bridge->encoder is not necessary, as it has already been checked in the drm_bridge_attach() function called by upstream bridge or driver. Hence, it is guaranteed that the .encoder member of the drm_bridge instance is not NULL when cdns_mhdp_connector_init() function get called. Remove the redundant checking codes "if (!bridge->encoder) { ... }".
