USB: serial: fix potential use-after-free after failed probe

Browse source

commit 07fdfc5e9f upstream.

Fix return value in probe error path, which could end up returning
success (0) on errors. This could in turn lead to use-after-free or
double free (e.g. in port_remove) when the port device is removed.

Fixes: c706ebdfc8 ("USB: usb-serial: call port_probe and port_remove
at the right times")
