4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 299d7572e46f98534033a9e65973f13ad1ce9047 upstream.
Make sure to reset the USB-console port pointer when console setup fails
in order to avoid having the struct usb_serial be prematurely freed by
the console code when the device is later disconnected.
Fixes: 73e487fdb75f ("[PATCH] USB console: fix disconnection issues")
