USB: serial: fix tty-device error handling at probe
Add missing error handling when registering the tty device at port probe. This avoids trying to remove an uninitialised character device when the port device is removed. Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") Reported-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> # v2.6.12 Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org> Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <greg@kroah.com>
