[PATCH resent] drm/amd/display: Fix exception handling in dm_validate_stream_and_context()

[Markus Elfring]

Date: Sat, 18 Mar 2023 16:21:32 +0100

The label “cleanup” was used to jump to another pointer check despite of
the detail in the implementation of the function “dm_validate_stream_and_context”
that it was determined already that corresponding variables contained
still null pointers.

1. Thus return directly if
   * a null pointer was passed for the function parameter “stream”
     or
   * a call of the function “dc_create_plane_state” failed.

2. Use a more appropriate label instead.

3. Delete two questionable checks.

4. Omit extra initialisations (for the variables “dc_state” and “dc_plane_state”)
   which became unnecessary with this refactoring.


This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
