Subject: [PATCH 4.8 29/35] drm/mediatek: fix null pointer dereference

4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Matthias Brugger <matthias.bgg@...il.com>

commit 5ad45307d990020b25a8f7486178b6e033790f70 upstream.

The probe function requests the interrupt before initializing
the ddp component. Which leads to a null pointer dereference at boot.
Fix this by requesting the interrput after all components got
initialized properly.
