From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
If AHD_DEBUG is enabled and ahd_platform_alloc fails then ahd is set
to null and the debug printk dereferences ahd when passing it to
ahd_name. Fix this by moving the debug printk to before the call
to ahd_platform_alloc where ahd is not null at that point.
Detected by CoverityScan, CID#100296 ("Explicit null dereference")
