Subject: [PATCH] drm/i2c/ch7006: fix a possible null pointer dereference

In ch7006_encoder_get_modes(), the return value of drm_mode_duplicate()
is assigned to mode, which will lead to a NULL pointer dereference
on failure of drm_mode_duplicate(). Add a check to avoid npd.

I think the kernel prefers to have variable declaration at the top of the
scope, and as well: this breaks things because you don't add back the
drm_mode_probed_add() call.
