Subject: [PATCH] drm/dp_mst: Fix NULL deref in get_mst_branch_device_by_guid_helper()

Check mgr->mst_primary, before passing it to
the get_mst_branch_device_by_guid_helper(), otherwise NULL dereference
may occur in the call to memcpy() and cause:

[12579.365869] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000049

Similar check is done in e.g: drm_dp_mst_topology_get_mstb_validated().
