[PATCH 5.15/6.1] drm/amd/display: Pass non-null to dcn20_validate_apply_pipe_split_flags

From: Alex Hung <alex.hung at amd.com>

commit 5559598742fb4538e4c51c48ef70563c49c2af23 upstream.

[WHAT & HOW]
"dcn20_validate_apply_pipe_split_flags" dereferences merge, and thus it
cannot be a null pointer. Let's pass a valid pointer to avoid null
dereference.

This fixes 2 FORWARD_NULL issues reported by Coverity.

[ Daniil: dcn20 and dcn21 were moved from drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc to
  drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/dc/resource since commit
  8b8eed05a1c6 ("drm/amd/display: Refactor resource into component directory").
  The path is changed accordingly to apply the patch on 5.15.y and 6.1.y. ]
