ASoC: Intel: atom: remove static analysis false positive
make KCFLAGS='-fanalyzer' sound/soc/intel/atom/ reports a possible
NULL pointer dereference.

sound/soc/intel/atom/sst/sst_stream.c:221:40: error: dereference of
NULL ‘block’ [CWE-476] [-Werror=analyzer-null-dereference]
  221 |                         unsigned char *r = block->data;

This is a false-positive, the GCC analyzer generated that report by
considering if (bytes->block) as true in some cases and false in
others.

We can simplify the code and use a local variable so that static
analysis does not try to look for cases where bytes->block can be
modified concurrently.
