When a GPU fault or timeout happens, the driver creates a devcoredump
to collect debug information.

During this, amdgpu_devcoredump_format() calls
amdgpu_discovery_dump() to print IP discovery data.

amdgpu_discovery_dump() uses:
   adev->discovery.ip_top

and then accesses:
   ip_top->die_kset

amdgpu_discovery_dump() uses adev->discovery.ip_top. However,
ip_top may be NULL if the discovery topology was never initialized.

The current code does not check for this before using ip_top. As a
result, when ip_top is NULL, the coredump worker crashes while taking
the spinlock for ip_top->die_kset.

Fix this by checking for a missing ip_top before walking the discovery
topology. If it is unavailable, print a short message in the dump and
return safely.

- If ip_top is NULL, print a message and skip the dump
- Also add the same check in the cleanup path

This makes the coredump and cleanup paths safe even when the
discovery topology is not available.

v2: Updated commit message - Clarified that ip_top is not freed, it can
     just be NULL if discovery was not initialized. (Christian/Lijo)

v3: Removed the extra drm_warn() for sysfs init failure as sysfs already
     reports errors. (Christian)

Is this type of printing really required or just skipping the whole section good enough?
