Subject: [PATCH v2] drm/qxl: fix NULL dereference in qxl_add_mode

Return value of a function 'drm_cvt_mode' is dereferenced without
checking for NULL but drm_mode_create() in drm_cvt_mode() may
return NULL value in case of memory allocation error.

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

Fixes: 1b043677d4be ("drm/qxl: add qxl_add_mode helper function")
