The assignment of pointer backup_bo dereferences pointer backup before
backup is null checked, this could lead to a null pointer dereference
issue. Fix this by only assigning backup_bo after backup has been null
checked.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check")
Fixes: c56ce9565374 ("drm/i915 Implement LMEM backup and restore for suspend / resume")

There's not really a pointer dereference here, just pointer arithmetics,
so the code should be safe (but admittedly fragile), so to keep Coverity
happy,

Yeah. I kind of feel like we shouldn't work around static checker bugs.
But when we do then there shouldn't be a Fixes tag.
