sender is dereferrenced before NULL check struct drm_device *dev = sender->dev; and due to there is warning during static analysis: warn: variable dereferenced before check 'sender' __read_panel_data Function is called by mdfld_dsi_read_mcs and there is a same check, Thus removing the check from mdfld_dsi_read_mcs and initializing dev struct after NULL check of sender.
