Subject: [PATCH 5.16 0821/1039] drm/amd/display: invalid parameter check in dmub_hpd_callback

From: José Expósito <jose.exposito89@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 978ffac878fd64039f95798b15b430032d2d89d5 ]

The function performs a check on the "adev" input parameter, however, it
is used before the check.

Initialize the "dev" variable after the sanity check to avoid a possible
NULL pointer dereference.

Fixes: e27c41d5b0681 ("drm/amd/display: Support for DMUB HPD interrupt handling")
Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1493909 ("Null pointer dereference")
