Subject[PATCH] [media] VPU: mediatek: fix dereference of pdev before checking it is null
Date
From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

pdev is dereferenced using platform_get_drvdata before a check to
see if it is null, hence there could be a potential null pointer
dereference issue. Instead, first check if pdev is null and only then
deference pdev when initializing vpu.
