drm/amd/display: set new_stream to NULL after release
In dm_update_crtc_state(), the skip_modeset path releases new_stream
via dc_stream_release() but does not set the pointer to NULL.
If a later error (e.g., color management failure) triggers the fail
label, the error path calls dc_stream_release() again on the same
dangling pointer, causing a double release and potential use-after-free.
Fix this by setting new_stream to NULL after the initial release.
