drm/msm/mdp5: Return error code in mdp5_pipe_release when deadlock is detected

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/msm/mdp5: Return error code in mdp5_pipe_release when deadlock is detected

mdp5_get_global_state runs the risk of hitting a -EDEADLK when acquiring
the modeset lock, but currently mdp5_pipe_release doesn't check for if
an error is returned. Because of this, there is a possibility of
mdp5_pipe_release hitting a NULL dereference error.

To avoid this, let's have mdp5_pipe_release check if
mdp5_get_global_state returns an error and propogate that error.

Changes since v1:
- Separated declaration and initialization of *new_state to avoid
  compiler warning
- Fixed some spelling mistakes in commit message

Changes since v2:
- Return 0 in case where hwpipe is NULL as this is considered normal
  behavior
- Added 2nd patch in series to fix a similar NULL dereference issue in
  mdp5_mixer_release
