commit a553add0846f355a28ed4e81134012e4a1e280c2 upstream.
Call uart_unregister_driver() conditionally instead of
unconditionally, only if it has been previously registered.
This uses driver.state, just as the sh-sci.c driver does.
Fixes this null pointer dereference in tty_unregister_driver(),
since the 'driver' argument is null:
general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI
