Subject: [PATCH 1/7] tty: ipwireless, cleanup TIOCGSERIAL

In ipwireless_get_serial_info, struct serial_struct is memset to 0 and
then some members set to 0 explicitly.

Remove the latter as it is obviously superfluous.

And remove the retinfo check against NULL. copy_to_user will take care
of that.

Part of hub6 cleanup series.
