Subject: [PATCH] nouveau_connector: add nv_encoder pointer check for NULL

Pointer nv_encoder could be dereferenced at nouveau_connector.c
in case it's equal to NULL by jumping to goto label.
This patch adds a NULL-check to avoid it.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Fixes: 3195c5f9784a ("drm/nouveau: set encoder for lvds")
