[PATCH v2] usb: typec: altmodes/displayport: create sysfs nodes after assigning driver data

[RD Babiera]

The DisplayPort driver's sysfs nodes may be present to the userspace before
typec_altmode_set_drvdata() completes in dp_altmode_probe. This means that
a sysfs read can trigger a NULL pointer error by deferencing dp->hpd in
hpd_show or dp->lock in pin_assignment_show, as dev_get_drvdata() returns
NULL in those cases.

Create sysfs nodes after typec_altmode_set_drvdata call.

Changes from v1:
* Moved sysfs node creation instead of NULL checking dev_get_drvdata().
