There's actually more than one occurance of this error:

drivers/gpu/drm/sun4i/sun4i_lvds.c: if (!IS_ERR(tcon->panel)) {
drivers/gpu/drm/sun4i/sun4i_lvds.c: if (!IS_ERR(tcon->panel)) {
drivers/gpu/drm/sun4i/sun4i_rgb.c: if (!IS_ERR(tcon->panel)) {
drivers/gpu/drm/sun4i/sun4i_rgb.c: if (!IS_ERR(tcon->panel)) {

These four are responsible for enabling and disabling the panel.

drivers/gpu/drm/sun4i/sun4i_tcon.c: if (!IS_ERR(tcon->panel)) {

All this looks like it was left over from commit ebc9446135671 ("drm: convert
drivers to use drm_of_find_panel_or_bridge"). We have checks against tcon->panel
in several places and not all of them were converted.
