In line 566, the statement is

if (nodo) {
	comp_pdev = ...
}

The comment says that only ovl_adaptoer has no device node, so the
checking should be

if (type != MTK_DISP_OVL_ADAPTOR) {
	comp_pdev = ...
}

and later it would return when type = MTK_DISP_OVL_ADAPTOR,
so there would be no problem of uninitialized symbol.
