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

From: Johan Hovold <[email protected]>

commit 91a1ff4d53c5184d383d0baeeaeab6f9736f2ff3 upstream.

The interrupt URB was submitted on probe but never stopped on probe errors. This can lead to use-after-free issues in the completion handler when accessing the freed usb-serial struct:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 6b6b6be7
