[PATCH]] drm/dp check aux_dev before use in drm_dp_aux_dev_get_by_minor()

I observed this when unplugging a DP monitor whilst a computer is asleep 
and then waking it up. This left DP chardev nodes still being present on 
the filesystem and accessing these device nodes caused an oops because 
drm_dp_aux_dev_get_by_minor() assumes a device exists if it is opened. 
This can also be reproduced by creating a device node with mknod(1) and 
issuing an open(2)

Looking at the caller, checks on the minor are pushed down to 
drm_dp_aux_dev_get_by_minor()

static int auxdev_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *file)
{
    unsigned int minor = iminor(inode);
    struct drm_dp_aux_dev *aux_dev;

    aux_dev = drm_dp_aux_dev_get_by_minor(minor); <====
    if (!aux_dev)
        return -ENODEV;

    file->private_data = aux_dev;
    return 0;
}
