From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Currently pointer aconnector is being dereferenced by the call to
to_dm_connector_state before it is being null checked, this could
lead to a null pointer dereference. Fix this by checking that
aconnector is null before dereferencing it.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check")
Fixes: 5133c6241d9c ("drm/amd/display: Add MST atomic routines")
