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.

+While much of the kernel's user-space API is documented elsewhere
+(particularly in the man-pages_ project), some user-space information can
+also be found in the kernel tree itself. This manual is intended to be the
+place where this information is gathered.
