We are checking for !conn_state a few lines below but we are 
dereferencing conn_state here.

This is bound to hit a smatch error and also does not look right.

If conn_state will always be valid, we should drop that check too rather 
than checking it later.

Coming to the issue itself, I tried checking the logs but it was not clear.

During force disable, were we hitting below check and hence the 
connector was not getting disabled?

else if (conn_state->connector->status != connector_status_connected) {
                DPU_ERROR("connector not connected %d\n", 
conn_state->connector->status);
                return -EINVAL;
        }


I did not see this error log there, so can you pls explain where we were 
bailing out? The check seems valid to me.
