_minor_ is being dereferenced before it is null checked, hence there
is a potential null pointer dereference. Fix this by moving the pointer
dereference after _minor_ has been null checked.

I wonder if a better solution for this would be to WARN_ON in case _minor_
happens to be NULL and return -EINVAL, instead of just returning zero.
Something like:
struct drm_device *dev;
if (WARN_ON(!minor)
return -EINVAL;
dev = minor->dev;
What do you think?
Thanks
