In amvdec_add_ts(), there is a dereference of kzalloc(), which could lead
to a NULL pointer dereference on failure of kzalloc().

I fix this bug by adding a NULL check of new_ts.

This bug was found by a static analyzer. The analysis employs
differential checking to identify inconsistent security operations
(e.g., checks or kfrees) between two code paths and confirms that the
inconsistent operations are not recovered in the current function or
the callers, so they constitute bugs.

Note that, as a bug found by static analysis, it can be a false
positive or hard to trigger. Multiple researchers have cross-reviewed
the bug.

Builds with CONFIG_VIDEO_MESON_VDEC=m show no new warnings,
and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code.
