I'm not quite seeing the connection between this change and the KASAN report.

If new_crtc_state was NULL, I would have expected a normal NULL pointer dereference oops, not a KASAN report.

The KASAN report instead indicates that new_crtc_state isn't NULL, but points to memory which has already been freed. This could be e.g. due to incorrect reference counting somewhere else.
