drm/fb-helper: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference
fb_helper is being dereferenced before it is null checked, hence there is a potential null pointer dereference. Fix this by moving the pointer dereference after fb_helper has been null checked. This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle. Fixes: c777990fb45b ("drm/fb-helper: Handle function NULL argument") Signed-off-by: Gustavo A. R.
