[ Upstream commit ef8886f321c5dab8124b9153d25afa2a71d05323 ]

A NULL check for bridge->encoder shows that it may be NULL, but it
already been dereferenced on all paths leading to the check.
812 if (!bridge->encoder) {

Dereference the pointer bridge->encoder.
810 drm_connector_attach_encoder(&lt9611->connector, bridge->encoder);
