PATCH 1/1 serial: protect uart_port_dtr_rts() in uart_shutdown() too

From: "Jiri Slaby (SUSE)" <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 602babaa84d627923713acaf5f7e9a4369e77473 ]

Commit af224ca2df29 (serial: core: Prevent unsafe uart port access, part
3) added few uport == NULL checks. It added one to uart_shutdown(), so the commit assumes, uport can be NULL in there. But right after that protection, there is an unprotected "uart_port_dtr_rts(uport, false);" call. That is invoked only if HUPCL is set, so I assume that is the reason why we do not see lots of these reports.

Or it cannot be NULL at this point at all for some reason :P.

Until the above is investigated, stay on the safe side and move this dereference to the if too.

I got this inconsistency from Coverity under CID 1585130. Thanks.

[Adapted over commit 5701cb8bf50e ("tty: Call ->dtr_rts() parameter active consistently") not in the tree]
