From: Srinivasan Shanmugam <srinivasan.shanmu...@amd.com> commit ac2140449184a26eac99585b7f69814bd3ba8f2d upstream.
This commit addresses a potential null pointer dereference issue in the `dcn32_acquire_idle_pipe_for_head_pipe_in_layer` function. The issue could occur when `head_pipe` is null. The fix adds a check to ensure `head_pipe` is not null before asserting it. If `head_pipe` is null, the function returns NULL to prevent a potential null pointer dereference.
