Issuing a modprobe -r g_serial command to the target over the gadget serial communications line causes modprobe to enter uninterruptable sleep, leaving the system in an unstable state. The associated tty_port.count won't drop to 0 because the command is issued over the very line being removed. Destroying the tty_port will ensure that resources are freed and modprobe will not hang.
