Simply swap of_alias and of_chosen initialization so
that of_alias ends up read first. This must be done
because it is accessed couple of lines below when
trying to initialize the of_stdout using the alias
based legacy method.

[Fixes a752ee5 - tty: Update hypervisor tty drivers to                          
use core stdout parsing code]

Close, but not quite. The 'if (!of_aliases)' test should not be moved.
Only the search for of_find_node_by_path(). I've fixed it up and
applied.
