Subject: drm/dp/mst: Always clear proposed vcpi table for port.
From: Andrey Grodzovsky <Andrey.Grodzovsky@xxxxxxx>
commit fd2d2bac6e79b0be91ab86a6075a0c46ffda658a upstream.
Not clearing mst manager's proposed vcpis table for destroyed connectors when the manager is stopped leaves it pointing to unrefernced memory, this causes pagefault when the manager is restarted when plugging back a branch.
Fixes: 91a25e463130 ("drm/dp/mst: deallocate payload on port destruction")
