Subject: drm/amd/display: Fix late derefrence 'dsc' check in 'link_set_dsc_pps_packet()'
From: Srinivasan Shanmugam <srinivasan.shanmugam@xxxxxxx>
commit 3bb9b1f958c3d986ed90a3ff009f1e77e9553207 upstream.
In link_set_dsc_pps_packet(), 'struct display_stream_compressor *dsc'
was dereferenced in a DC_LOGGER_INIT(dsc->ctx->logger); before the 'dsc'
NULL pointer check.
Fixes the below:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/link/link_dpms.c:905 link_set_dsc_pps_packet() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'dsc' (see line 903)
