[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] drm/i915/gvt: don't dereference 'workload' before null checking it

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>

The pointer workload is dereferenced before it is null checked, hence
there is a potential for a null pointer dereference on workload. Fix
this by only dereferencing workload after it is null checked.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1466017 ("Dereference before null check")

Fixes: fa3dd623e559 ("drm/i915/gvt: keep oa config in shadow ctx")
