drm/mediatek: Add missing IS_ERR check for ovl_adaptor platform devicegrafted
platform_device_register_data() can fail and return an ERR_PTR, but the return value is used without checking, leading to an invalid pointer being stored in ddp_comp[].dev and passed to component_match_add() and mtk_ddp_comp_init(), which could result in a kernel crash. Add an IS_ERR() check to jump to the error handling path on failure.

+Panfrost DRM client usage stats implementation
+==============================================
+
+The drm/Panfrost driver implements the DRM client usage stats specification as
+documented in :ref:`drm-client-usage-stats`.
+
+Example of the output showing the implemented key value pairs and entirety of
+the currently possible format options:
+
+::
+ pos: 0
+ flags: 02400002
+ mnt_id: 27
+ ino: 531
+ drm-driver: panfrost
+ drm-client-id: 14
+ drm-engine-fragment: 1846584880 ns
+ drm-cycles-fragment: 1424359409
+ drm-maxfreq-fragment: 799999987 Hz
+ drm-curfreq-fragment: 799999987 Hz
+ drm-engine-vertex-tiler: 71932239 ns
+ drm-cycles-vertex-tiler: 52617357
+ drm-maxfreq-vertex-tiler: 799999987 Hz
+ drm-curfreq-vertex-tiler: 799999987 Hz
+ drm-total-memory: 290 MiB
+ drm-shared-memory: 0 MiB
+ drm-active-memory: 226 MiB
+ drm-resident-memory: 36496 KiB
+ drm-purgeable-memory: 128 KiB
+
+Possible `drm-engine-` key names are: `fragment`, and `vertex-tiler`.
+`drm-curfreq-` values convey the current operating frequency for that engine.
+
+Users must bear in mind that engine and cycle sampling are disabled by default,
+because of power saving concerns. `fdinfo` users and benchmark applications which
+query the fdinfo file must make sure to toggle the job profiling status of the
+driver by writing into the appropriate sysfs node::
+
+ echo <N> > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/panfrost/[a-f0-9]*.gpu/profiling
+
+Where `N` is either `0` or `1`, depending on the desired enablement status.
