Subject: [PATCH v3 3/5] drm/bridge: cadence: cdns-mhdp8546-core: Set the mhdp connector earlier in atomic_enable()

In case if we get errors in cdns_mhdp_link_up() or cdns_mhdp_reg_read()
in atomic_enable, we will go to cdns_mhdp_modeset_retry_fn() and will hit
NULL pointer while trying to access the mutex. We need the connector to
be set before that. Unlike in legacy !(DBANC) cases, we do not have
connector initialised in bridge_attach(). So set the mhdp->connector
in atomic_enable() earlier to avoid possible NULL pointer.

Fixes: c932ced6b585 ("drm/tidss: Update encoder/bridge chain connect model")
