[PATCH v3] drm/gma500: fix null pointer dereference in cdv_intel_lvds_get_modes

[Ma Ke]

In cdv_intel_lvds_get_modes(), the return value of drm_mode_duplicate()
is assigned to mode, which will lead to a NULL pointer dereference on
failure of drm_mode_duplicate(). Add a check to avoid npd.

Are you going to adjust this information anyhow?

The usage of mailing list addresses is probably undesirable for
the Developer's Certificate of Origin, isn't it?
