Commit 6bed2ea3cb38 ("drm/vc4: hdmi: Reset link on hotplug") introduced
the vc4_hdmi_reset_link() function. This function dereferences the
"connector" pointer before checking whether it is NULL or not.
Rework variable assignment to avoid this issue.

I don't think that's right. Connector shouldn't be NULL to begin with,
how did you notice this?

Hi Maxime,
Thanks a lot for looking into the patch.

This issue was reported by Coverity. At the moment this function is not
invoked with a NULL connector by any code path. However, since the NULL
check is present, in my opinion, it makes sense to either remove it or
make it usefull just in case the preconditions change in the future.
But at the moment, this is not a big deal.
Thanks,
Jose

Yeah, it makes sense
I'd ask for a small cosmetic change then, could you add the assignments
where they are actually needed instead of at the top of the function?
Something like
if (!connector)
return 0;
+drm = connector->dev;
ret = drm_modeset_lock(&drm->mode_config.connection_mutex, ctx);
...
+vc4_hdmi = connector_to_vc4_hdmi(connector);
if (!vc4_hdmi_supports_scrambling(vc4_hdmi))
...
Changing the prototype of vc4_hdmi_supports_scrambling to take a struct
vc4_hdmi pointer would also help, it's much more convenient.

Dunno why you want to keep around dead code like that.
I'd just nuke the bogus null check.
