[Nouveau] [PATCH] nv50_disp_chan_mthd: ensure mthd is not NULL

[Frédéric Pierret]

Pointer to structure array is assumed not NULL by default. It has
the consequence to raise a kernel panic when it's not the case.

Basically, running at least a RTX2080TI on Xen makes a bad mmio error
which causes having 'mthd' pointer to be NULL in 'channv50.c'. From the
code, it's assumed to be not NULL by accessing directly 'mthd->data[0]'
which is the reason of the kernel panic. Simply check if the pointer
is not NULL before continuing.
