hso: fix crash when device disappears while serial port is open
hso_serial_open would always kref_get(&serial->parent->ref) before
returning zero.
Since that commit, it only calls kref_get when returning 0 if
serial->port.count was zero.
This results in calls to
kref_put(&serial->parent->ref, hso_serial_ref_free);
after hso_serial_ref_free has been called, which dereferences a freed
pointer.
This patch adds the missing kref_get().
