Nathan Chancellor fc71f615fd drm/amd/display: Fix -Wuninitialized in dm_helpers_dp_mst_send_payload_allocation()
When building with clang, there is a warning (or error when
CONFIG_WERROR is set):

  drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_helpers.c:368:21: error: variable 'old_payload' is uninitialized when used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized]
    368 |                                                  new_payload, old_payload);
        |                                                               ^~~~~~~~~~~
  drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_helpers.c:344:61: note: initialize the variable 'old_payload' to silence this warning
    344 |         struct drm_dp_mst_atomic_payload *new_payload, *old_payload;
        |                                                                    ^
        |                                                                     = NULL
  1 error generated.

This variable is not required outside of this function so allocate
old_payload on the stack and pass it by reference to
dm_helpers_construct_old_payload(), resolving the warning.

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.
