From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

Just before calling unregister_framebuffer with info there is a
null check on info, implying info may possibly zero.  Calling
unregister_framebuffer with a null pointer will cause a null
pointer dereference, fix this by moving the call to the block
where info has been null checked.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1473969 ("Dereference after null check")
