Subject: [PATCH 4.20 65/65] drm/rockchip: psr: do not dereference encoder before it is null checked.

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

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

From: Enric Balletbo i Serra <enric.balletbo@...labora.com>

commit 4eda776c3cefcb1f01b2d85bd8753f67606282b5 upstream.

'encoder' is dereferenced before it is null sanity checked, hence we
potentially have a null pointer dereference bug. Instead, initialise
drm_drv from encoder->dev->dev_private after we are sure 'encoder' is
not null.
