Subject: [PATCH] drivers: tty: serial: Bail out if no UART is detected
Before the 5.0, serial8250_register_8250_port consisted of one BIG
if(uart && uart->port.type != PORT_8250_CIR) block, which prevented
NULL dereference if uart, a pointer to an "uart_8250_port" detected
through "serial8250_find_match_or_unused", were to be NULL.
However, a recent patch added a few bits of code just after that,
and that code manipulates the "uart" pointer without checking if
it's NULL or not.
This patch changes the mechanism and bail out early if no UART
structure pointer is provided serial8250_find_match_or_unused.
A goto is used instead of returning directly, since we're inside
a mutex and must release it correctly.
