If the VGA connector has no DDC channel, an error pointer will be
dereferenced, e.g. on Salvator-XS:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 000000000000017d
...
Call trace:
sysfs_do_create_link_sd.isra.0+0x40/0x108

This happens because vga->ddc either contains a valid DDC channel
pointer, or -ENODEV, and drm_connector_init_with_ddc() expects a valid
DDC channel pointer, or NULL.
Fix this by resetting vga->ddc to NULL in case of -ENODEV, and replacing
the existing error checks by non-NULL checks.
This is similar to what the HDMI connector driver does.
Fixes:

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
