tty: serial: kgdboc: Fix 8250_* kgdb over serial
[ Upstream commit 788aeef392d27545ae99af2875068a9dd0531d5f ]
Check if port type is not PORT_UNKNOWN during poll_init.
The kgdboc calls the tty_find_polling_driver that check
if the serial is able to use poll_init. The poll_init calls
the uart uart_poll_init that try to configure the uart with the
selected boot parameters. The uart must be ready before setting
parameters. Seems that PORT_UNKNOWN is already used by other
functions in serial_core to detect uart status, so use the same
to avoid to use it in invalid state.
The crash happen for instance in am62x architecture where the 8250
register the platform driver after the 8250 core is initialized.
Follow the report crash coming from KGDB
