drm/i915/bios: Avoid temporary allocation whilst searching for downclock

Alan Cox reported a missing check on the kmalloc return value for the
allocation of a temporary mode used for searching for the LVDS downlock
frequency. This allocation is roughly 200 bytes, a little too large to
friviously place on the stack. However, we can simply use the few bytes
we need stored within the original DVO timing data, skip the translation
and do the compare directly between the timing data rather than on a
mode, thus avoiding the need for any temporary allocations.
