Subject: [PATCH v3] drm/nouveau: fix null pointer dereference in nouveau_connector_get_modes

In nouveau_connector_get_modes(), the return value of drm_mode_duplicate()
is assigned to mode, which will lead to a possible NULL pointer
dereference on failure of drm_mode_duplicate(). Add a check to avoid npd.

Cc: stable@...r.kernel.org
Fixes: 6ee738610f41 ("drm/nouveau: Add DRM driver for NVIDIA GPUs")
Signed-off-by: Ma Ke <make24@...as.ac.cn>
