Make sure to wake up any process sleeping on the modem-status-change queue at port remove. Currently a process waiting on modem status changes will not necessarily be woken on device disconnect. Note that we need to use the disconnected flag to detect disconnect as the port private data may have been freed when woken up. Also remove bogus test for private data pointer being NULL as it is never assigned in the loop.
