[PATCH] drm/i915/mst: Do not clear the reference to encoder on unplug.

[Dhinakaran Pandiyan]

Clearing intel_connector->mst_port in the destroy_connector() hook
results in losing access to intel_dp when user space decides to shutdown
the crtc, i.e., atomic_best_encoder() will return NULL and the encoder
is not disabled.
