    drm/rockchip: psr: do not dereference encoder before it is null checked.
    
    [ Upstream commit 4eda776c3cefcb1f01b2d85bd8753f67606282b5 ]
    
    'encoder' is dereferenced before it is null sanity checked, hence we
    potentially have a null pointer dereference bug. Instead, initialise
    drm_drv from encoder->dev->dev_private after we are sure 'encoder' is
    not null.
