Jason-JH Lin 7d5cc22efa drm/mediatek: Add error handling for old state CRTC in atomic_disable 
[ Upstream commit 0c6b24d70d ]

Introduce error handling to address an issue where, after a hotplug
event, the cursor continues to update. This situation can lead to a
kernel panic due to accessing the NULL `old_state->crtc`.

E,g.
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
Call trace:

Adding NULL pointer checks to ensure stability by preventing operations
on an invalid CRTC state.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
