Subject: [PATCH] tty: serial: uartlite: avoid null pointer dereference during rmmod

After commit 415b43bdb008 "tty: serial: uartlite: Move uart register to
probe", calling uart_unregister_driver unconditionally will trigger a
null pointer dereference due to ulite_uart_driver may not registed.

  Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.10.2-1ubuntu1 04/01/2014

Call uart_unregister_driver only if ulite_uart_driver.state not null to
fix it.
