The entity variable was being initialized in the wrong place, before the
parameters have been checked.
To solve this, completely removed the entity variable and replaced it
with the initialization value : &sd->entity.
This will avoid dereferencing 'sd' pointer before it's being checked if
it's NULL.

Fixes: 61f5db549dde ("[media] v4l: Make v4l2_subdev inherit from media_entity")

Changes in v2:
 - replaced entity with &sd->entity completely as suggested
