6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Ma Ke <make24@xxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 113fd6372a5bb3689aba8ef5b8a265ed1529a78f upstream.
In drm_client_modeset_probe(), the return value of drm_mode_duplicate() is
assigned to modeset->mode, which will lead to a possible NULL pointer
dereference on failure of drm_mode_duplicate(). Add a check to avoid npd.
