[PATCH][next] drm/amdkfd: fix null pointer dereference on dev

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>

The pointer dev is set to null yet it is being dereferenced when
checking dev->dqm->sched_policy.  Fix this by performing the check
on dev->dqm->sched_policy after dev has been assigned and null
checked.  Also remove the redundant null assignment to dev.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Explicit null dereference")
Fixes: 1a058c337676 ("drm/amdkfd: New IOCTL to allocate queue GWS")
