Subject: [PATCH 001] USB: Error handling bug fix for serial_open()

From: Richard Pearman <richard.pearman@...ellect.com.au>
From: Greg Breen <greg.breen@...ellect.com.au>

When an error occurs in serial_open() ensure that port->tty and 
tty->driver_data are set  to NULL, if previously assigned a value in the 
function.
