Subject: [PATCH v2] usb: typec: tcpm: Fix NULL pointer dereference in tcpm_pd_svdm()

It is possible that typec_register_partner() returns ERR_PTR on failure.
When port->partner is an error, a NULL pointer dereference may occur as
shown below.

[91222.095236][  T319] typec port0: failed to register partner (-17)

Add a check for port->partner to avoid dereferencing a NULL pointer.
