[ Upstream commit 898a9e3f56db9860ab091d4bf41b6caa99aafc3d ]

In ltdc_crtc_set_crc_source(), struct drm_crtc was dereferenced in a
container_of() before the pointer check. This could cause a kernel panic.

Fix this smatch warning:
drivers/gpu/drm/stm/ltdc.c:1124 ltdc_crtc_set_crc_source() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'crtc' (see line 1119)
