Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] serial: core: Fix serial_base_match() after fixing controller port name

While fixing DEVNAME to be more usable, I broke serial_base_match() as the
ctrl and port prefix for device names seemed unnecessary.

The prefixes are still needed by serial_base_match() to probe the serial
base controller port, and serial tx is now broken.

Let's fix the issue by checking against dev->type and drv->name instead
of the prefixes that are no longer in the DEVNAME.

Fixes: 1ef2c2df1199 ("serial: core: Fix serial core controller port name to show controller id")
Reported-by: kernel test robot <oliver.sang@...el.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-lkp/202308021529.35b3ad6c-oliver.sang@intel.com

Changes since v1:
- Leave out magic numbers and use str_has_prefix() as suggested by Andy
  and Greg

- Improve patch description and add a link for Closes tag as suggested
  by Jiri

- Check the name against device_type name since we have it and leave
  out the changes to try to define names in the header because of the
  issues noted by Jiri

- Leave out Tested-by from Mark and Anders as the patch changed
