drm/dp/mst: Get validated port ref in drm_dp_update_payload_part1()



We can thank KASAN for finding this, otherwise I probably would have spent
hours on it. This fixes a somewhat harder to trigger kernel panic, occuring
while enabling MST where the port we were currently updating the payload on
would have all of it's refs dropped before we finished what we were doing:

==================================================================
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in drm_dp_update_payload_part1+0xb3f/0xdb0 [drm_kms_helper] at addr ffff8800d29de018

which on this T460s, would eventually lead to kernel panics in somewhat
random places later in intel_mst_enable_dp() if we got lucky enough.
