Subject: [PATCH 5.18 302/879] drm: mali-dp: potential dereference of null pointer

From: Jiasheng Jiang <jiasheng@...as.ac.cn>

[ Upstream commit 73c3ed7495c67b8fbdc31cf58e6ca8757df31a33 ]

The return value of kzalloc() needs to be checked.
To avoid use of null pointer '&state->base' in case of the
failure of alloc.
