From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>
There is a null pointer sanity check on sender after sender is earlier
dereferenced on the intialization of drm_device dev. Move this
dereference to after sender is sanity checked to avoid the null
pointer dereference. Issue found with static analysis using CoverityScan.
