Subject: [PATCH v5] usb: gadget: u_serial: Add null pointer check in gserial_resume

Consider a case where gserial_disconnect has already cleared
gser->ioport. And if a wakeup interrupt triggers afterwards,
gserial_resume gets called, which will lead to accessing of
gser->ioport and thus causing null pointer dereference.Add
a null pointer check to prevent this.

Added a static spinlock to prevent gser->ioport from becoming
null after the newly added check.

Fixes: aba3a8d01d62 ("usb: gadget: u_serial: add suspend resume callbacks")
