De-referencing param.oa_unit, when an OA unit id is not provided during
stream open, results in NPD below.
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address...
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range...
RIP: 0010:xe_oa_stream_open_ioctl+0x169/0x38a0
xe_observation_ioctl+0x19f/0x270
drm_ioctl_kernel+0x1f4/0x410
Fix this by moving default oa unit assignment before the dereference.
