Subject: drm/amd/display: add a NULL pointer check
From: Sung-huai Wang <danny.wang@xxxxxxx>
commit 0f48a4b83610cb0e4e0bc487800ab69f51b4aca6 upstream.
[Why & How]
We have to check if stream is properly initialized before calling
find_matching_pll(), otherwise we might end up trying to deferecence a
NULL pointer.
