[PATCH][next] drm: fix null pointer dereference on null state pointer
From: Colin King
Date: Sat Dec 22 2018 - 13:31:59 EST
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
In the case where state cannot be allocated, the current exit path via
label 'out' will dereference the null state pointer when calling
drm_atomic_state_put. Fix this by adding a new error exit label and
jumping to this to avoid the drm_atomic_state_put.
Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1476034 ("Dereference after null check")
Fixes: b9fc5e01d1ce ("drm: Add helper to implement legacy dirtyfb")
