[Why]
Found kernel NULL pointer dereference under the below situation:

        src — HDMI_Monitor   src — HDMI_Monitor
e.g.:       \            =>
             MSTB — MSTB     (unplug) MSTB — MSTB

When display 1 HDMI and 2 DP daisy chain monitors, unplugging the dp
cable connected to source causes kernel NULL pointer dereference at
drm_dp_mst_atomic_check_bw_limit(). When calculating pbn_limit, if
branch is null, accessing "&branch->ports" causes the problem.

[How]
Judge branch is null or not at the beginning. If it is null, return 0.
