sender is dereferrenced before NULL check struct drm_device *dev = sender->dev;
and due to this we get warning during static analysis: warn: variable dereferenced before check 'sender'
__read_panel_data Function is called by mdfld_dsi_read_mcs and there is a same check, Thus removing the check from __read_panel_data.

I would prefer to have these kind of checks where it actually matters (ie. in __read_panel_data()). The saner thing would be to move the dereference until after the check and remove the duplicated check from mdfld_dsi_read_mcs(). That would prevent any further need for adding additional checks whenever calling __read_panel_data().
