According to DP specification, DP_SINK_EVENT_NOTIFY is also a
broadcast message but as this function only handles
DP_CONNECTION_STATUS_NOTIFY I will only make the static
analyzer that caught this issue happy by not calling
drm_dp_get_mst_branch_device_by_guid() with a NULL guid, causing
drm_dp_mst_process_up_req() to return in the "if (!mstb)" right
bellow.

Been fixing something similar in dp mst topology a while ago, was also
similar NULL pointer dereference. Fix seems to be correct, however I
would still have a look at least, how it affects overall logic then.
I mean now we don't call drm_dp_get_mst_branch_device_by_guid if guid
is NULL - that's ok, however it means that mstb will not get
initialized and how this is going to affect the code flow then?

SHould we may be still try to initialize mstb somehow and check
guid actually inside of this drm_dp_get_mst_branch_device_by_guid
function? Or call drm_dp_get_mst_branch_device?

I'm not stating anything here, just asking question to 
make the overall picture bit more clear.

Anyways, even wrong logic to me is better than crashing so,

Well it do not matters if it set mstb if on the next block it will only
handle messages of DP_CONNECTION_STATUS_NOTIFY type but for sure we
should handle this two other message types.
