Subject: [PATCH 4.4 48/76] USB: serial: quatech2: handle unbound ports

From: Johan Hovold <johan@...nel.org>

commit 9715a43eea77e42678a1002623f2d9a78f5b81a1 upstream.

Check for NULL port data in the modem- and line-status handlers to avoid
dereferencing a NULL pointer in the unlikely case where a port device
isn't bound to a driver (e.g. after an allocation failure on port
probe).

Note that the other (stubbed) event handlers qt2_process_xmit_empty()
and qt2_process_flush() would need similar sanity checks in case they
are ever implemented.

Fixes: f7a33e608d9a ("USB: serial: add quatech2 usb to serial driver")
