Subject: [ 42/85] USB: keyspan_pda: fix port-data memory leak

3.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <jhovold@...il.com>

commit 94ab71ce288921490ca857e25ad174e1921b1e29 upstream.

Fix port-data memory leak by replacing attach and release with
port_probe and port_remove.

Since commit 0998d0631001288 (device-core: Ensure drvdata = NULL when no
driver is bound) the port private data is no longer freed at release as
it is no longer accessible.

Note that the write waitqueue was initialised but never used.

Compile-only tested.
