[PATCH v4 RESEND] drm/client: fix null pointer dereference in drm_client_modeset_probe

In drm_client_modeset_probe(), the return value of drm_mode_duplicate() is
assigned to modeset->mode, which will lead to a possible NULL pointer
dereference on failure of drm_mode_duplicate(). Add a check to avoid npd.

Changes in v4:
- modified patch, set ret and break to handle error rightly.
Changes in v3:
- modified patch as suggestions, returned error directly when failing to 
get modeset->mode.
Changes in v2:
- added the recipient's email address, due to the prolonged absence of a 
response from the recipients.
- added Cc stable.
