From: Victor Lu <victorchengchi.lu at amd.com>

[ Upstream commit 8e92bb0fa75bca9a57e4aba2e36f67d8016a3053 ]

[why]
An old dc_sink state is causing a memory leak because it is missing a
dc_sink_release before a new dc_sink is assigned back to
aconnector->dc_sink.

[how]
Decrement the dc_sink refcount before reassigning it to a new dc_sink.
