[PATCH v3] drivers/tty/serial: check the return value of uart_port_check()

[Li Zhong <floridsleeves@gmail.com>]

uart_port_check() will return NULL pointer when state->uart_port is
NULL. Check the return value before dereference it to avoid
null-pointer-dereference error. Here we do not need unlock in the error
handling because the mutex_unlock() is called in callers.
