[PATCH v2] drm/msm/hdmi: remove unnecessary NULL check

This code was recently refactored in commit and now the "hdmi" pointer
can't be NULL.  Checking for NULL leads to a Smatch warning:

    drivers/gpu/drm/msm/hdmi/hdmi.c:141 msm_hdmi_init()
    warn: variable dereferenced before check 'hdmi' (see line 119)

Fixes: 69a88d8633ec ("drm/msm/hdmi: move resource allocation to probe function")

v2: Add a Fixes tag.  Re-work the commit message.
