Tuo Li ec2f37bbb7 drm/panel: Fix a possible null-pointer dereference in jdi_panel_dsi_remove() 
[ Upstream commit 95eed73b87 ]

In jdi_panel_dsi_remove(), jdi is explicitly checked, indicating that it
may be NULL:

  if (!jdi)
    mipi_dsi_detach(dsi);

However, when jdi is NULL, the function does not return and continues by
calling jdi_panel_disable():

  err = jdi_panel_disable(&jdi->base);

Inside jdi_panel_disable(), jdi is dereferenced unconditionally, which can
lead to a NULL-pointer dereference:

  struct jdi_panel *jdi = to_panel_jdi(panel);
  backlight_disable(jdi->backlight);

To prevent such a potential NULL-pointer dereference, return early from
jdi_panel_dsi_remove() when jdi is NULL.

README 

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.
