Currently there is no null check for a failed memory allocation on the dsb object and without this a null pointer dereference error can occur. Fix this by adding a null check.
Note: added a drm_err message in keeping with the error message style in the function.

Don't give in to peer pressure! That's like being a lemming when Disney film makers come to push you off the cliff to create the 1958 nature film "White Wilderness".
