Subject: [PATCH 4/6] [media] omap_vout: Fix a possible null pointer
 dereference in omap_vout_open()

Move a debug message so that a null pointer access can not happen
for the variable "vout" in this function.

Fixes: 5c7ab6348e7b3fcca2b8ee548306c774472971e2 ("V4L/DVB: V4L2: Add support for OMAP2/3 V4L2 display driver on top of DSS2")
