I noticed a rather surprising issue here while working on removing all of
the non-atomic MST code: drm_atomic_get_mst_topology_state() doesn't check
the return value of drm_atomic_get_private_obj_state() and instead just
passes it directly to to_dp_mst_topology_state(). This means that if we
hit a deadlock or something else which would return an error code pointer,
we'll likely segfault the kernel.
This is definitely another one of those fixes where I'm astonished we
somehow managed never to discover this issue until now…
