[RFC PATCH] drm: bridge: cdns-mhdp8546: Fix possible null pointer dereference

[Jayesh Choudhary <j-choudhary@ti.com>]

For the cases we have DRM_BRIDGE_ATTACH_NO_CONNECTOR flag set,
the connector structure is not initialised in the bridge. That's done
by encoder. So in case of some failure in cdns_mhdp_atomic_enable,
when we schedule work for modeset_retry_work, we will use the mutex
of connector which will result in NULL pointer dereference.
Handle it by adding condition for the connector. Otherwise, since
the modeset_retry_work tries to set the connector status as bad,
set the mhdp->plugged as false which would give the connector
status as disconnected in detect hook.

Fixes: fb43aa0acdfd ("drm: bridge: Add support for Cadence MHDP8546 DPI/DP bridge")

NOTE: Found this issue in one particular board where edid read failed.
Issue log: <https://gist.github.com/Jayesh2000/233f87f9becdf1e66f1da6fd53f77429>

Adding conditional fixes the null pointer issue but there is still
flooding of these logs (128 times):
"cdns-mhdp8546 a000000.bridge: Failed to read DPCD addr 0"

Sending RFC as I am still not sure about how to handle this flooding.
Is it okay to decrease the log level for DPCD read and DPCD write in
the cdns_mhdp_transfer to debug?
