Subject: [PATCH] drm/amdgpu: ensure device_list is initialised before calling list_add_tail

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@...onical.com>

Currently the call to list_add_tail will access an the uninitalised
device_list.prev. Fix this by ensuring device_list is initialized before
adding items to it.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Uninitialized pointer read")
Fixes: b3dbd6d3ec49 ("drm/amdgpu: resolve mGPU RAS query instability")
