Subject: [v2.6.34-stable 145/213] USB: mos7840: fix port-device leak in error path

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

                   -------------------
    This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
    http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/paulg/longterm-queue-2.6.34.git
    If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
                   -------------------

commit 3eb55cc4ed88eee3b5230f66abcdbd2a91639eda upstream.

The driver set the usb-serial port pointers to NULL on errors in attach,
effectively preventing usb-serial core from decrementing the port ref
counters and releasing the port devices and associated data.
