Subject: USB: serial: mos7720: fix parport use-after-free on probe errors

From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>

commit 75dd211e773afcbc264677b0749d1cf7d937ab2d upstream.

Do not submit the interrupt URB until after the parport has been
successfully registered to avoid another use-after-free in the
completion handler when accessing the freed parport private data in case
of a racing completion.
