From: Hugo Villeneuve <hvilleneuve@xxxxxxxxxxxx> There is no need to check for previous port registration in sc16is7xx_remove() because if sc16is7xx_probe() succeeded, we are guaranteed to have successfully registered both ports. We can thus unconditionally clear the line allocation bit in sc16is7xx_lines.
