Subject: [PATCH] drm/dp_mst: Avoid NULL pointer dereference
[Why]
Found kernel NULL pointer dereference under the below situation:
src — HDMI_Monitor src — HDMI_Monitor
e.g.: \ =>
MSTB — MSTB (unplug) MSTB — MSTB
When display 1 HDMI and 2 DP daisy chain monitors, unplugging the dp
cable connected to source causes kernel NULL pointer dereference at
drm_dp_mst_atomic_check_bw_limit(). When calculating pbn_limit, if
branch is null, accessing "&branch->ports" causes the problem.
[How]
Judge branch is null or not at the beginning. If it is null, return 0.
