[PATCH] usb: gadget: u_serial: Add null pointer checks after RX/TX submission

[Kuen-Han Tsai]

Commit ffd603f21423 ("usb: gadget: u_serial: Add null pointer check in
gs_start_io") adds null pointer checks to gs_start_io(), but it doesn't
fully fix the potential null pointer dereference issue. While
gserial_connect() calls gs_start_io() with port_lock held, gs_start_rx()
and gs_start_tx() release the lock during endpoint request submission.
This creates a window where gs_close() could set port->port_tty to NULL,
leading to a dereference when the lock is reacquired.

This patch adds a null pointer check for port->port_tty after RX/TX
submission, and removes the initial null pointer check in gs_start_io()
since the caller must hold port_lock and guarantee non-null values for
port_usb and port_tty.

Explanation:
    CPU1:                            CPU2:
    gserial_connect() // lock
                                     gs_close() // await lock
    gs_start_rx()     // unlock
    usb_ep_queue()
                                     gs_close() // lock, reset port_tty and unlock
    gs_start_rx()     // lock
    tty_wakeup()      // dereference
