Unloading a hardware specific 8250 driver can produce error "Unable to
handle kernel paging request at virtual address" about ten seconds after
unloading the driver. This happens on uart_hangup() calling
uart_change_pm().
Turns out commit 04e82793f068 ("serial: 8250: Reinit port->pm on port
specific driver unbind") was only a partial fix. If the hardware specific
driver has initialized port->pm function, we need to clear port->pm too.
Just reinitializing port->ops does not do this. Otherwise serial8250_pm()
will call port->pm() instead of serial8250_do_pm().
