[Why]
A porting error on a previous patch left the block of code that
causes the crash from a NULL pointer dereference.
More specifically, we try to access link_enc before it's assigned in
the USB4 case in the following assignment:
config.dio_output_idx = link_enc->transmitter - TRANSMITTER_UNIPHY_A;
[How]
That assignment occurs later depending on the ASIC version. It's only
needed on DCN31 and only after link_enc is already assigned.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
