With the other patch on top of this, yes, I did see uninitialized 
port->port_dev already in serial_core_add_one_port()->uart_configure_port().
While that could be solved by removing the pm_runtime_*() calls from 
there, I think it's a generic problem because after 
serial_core_add_one_port() the port can have anything happening on it, no?
