If the VGA connector has no DDC channel, an error pointer will be
dereferenced, e.g. on Salvator-XS:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
000000000000017d
...

This happens because vga->ddc either contains a valid DDC channel
pointer, or -ENODEV, and drm_connector_init_with_ddc() expects a valid
DDC channel pointer, or NULL.
Fix this by resetting vga->ddc to NULL in case of -ENODEV, and replacing
the existing error checks by non-NULL checks.
This is similar to what the HDMI connector driver does.
