The commit f9b11229b79c ("serial: 8250: Fix PM usage_count for console handover") fixed one runtime PM usage counter balance problem that occurs because .dev is not set during univ8250 setup preventing call to pm_runtime_get_sync(). Later, univ8250_console_exit() will trigger the runtime PM usage counter underflow as .dev is already set at that time. Call pm_runtime_get_sync() to balance the RPM usage counter also in serial8250_register_8250_port() before trying to add the port.
