If the allocation of priv fails, meson_drv_bind_master() jumps to the
free_drm label, which calls meson_encoder_{dsi,hdmi,cvbs}_remove() with
a NULL priv. These functions dereference priv, so the error path oopses
instead of returning -ENOMEM.
Only the drm device has been allocated at that point, so put it and
return directly.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
Compile tested only.
