From: Jiasheng Jiang <jiasheng@iscas.ac.cn>

[ Upstream commit fea3fdf975dd9f3e5248afaab8fe023db313f005 ]

The return value of kzalloc() needs to be checked.
To avoid use of null pointer '&ast_state->base' in case of the
failure of alloc.

Fixes: f0adbc382b8b ("drm/ast: Allocate initial CRTC state of the correct size")
