num_multi_layer_olss is 0 if vps_each_layer_is_an_ols_flag is true, it 
is num_layers_in_ols which must be 1.

Yes I think you're right.  The spec isn't especially clear, but the 
description of the vps_each_layer_is_an_ols_flag leads me to believe we 
are safe to assert that.  Patch which does so below.
