Fixes: aba3a8d01d62 (" usb: gadget: u_serial: add suspend resume callbacks")

Nit, and our tools will complain, no " " before the "usb:" string here,
right?

Will fix it in next patch.

What prevents port from going to NULL right after this check?
In our case we got a null pointer de-reference while performing USB compliance tests, as the gser->port was null. Because in gserial_resume, spinlock_irq_save(&port->port_lock) accesses a null-pointer as port was already marked null by gserial_disconnect.

And after gserial_resume acquires the spinlock, gserial_disconnect cant mark it null until the spinlock is released. We need to check if the port->lock is valid before accessing it, otherwise it can lead to the above mentioned scenario

Issue Type: kernel panic issue

pc : do_raw_spin_lock
lr : _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
