[PATCH] drm/amd/pp: fix a dereference of a pointer before it is null checked

[Colin King]

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The pointer hwmgr is dereferenced when initializing pointer adev however
it is a little later hwmgr is null checked, implying it could potentially
be null hence the assignment of adev may cause a null pointer dereference.
Fix this by moving the assignment after the null check. Note that I did
think of removing adev as it is only used once, however, hwmgr->adev is
a void * pointer, so using adev avoids some ugly casting so it makes sense
to still use it.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference before null check")
Fixes: 59156faf810e ("drm/amd/pp: Remove the cgs wrapper for notify smu version on APU")
