Considering that in some extreme cases,
when u_serial driver is accessed by multiple threads,
Thread A is executing the open operation and calling the gs_open,
Thread B is executing the disconnect operation and calling the
gserial_disconnect function,The port->port_usb pointer will be set to NULL.

E.g.
    Thread A                                 Thread B
    gs_open()                                gadget_unbind_driver()
    gs_start_io()                            composite_disconnect()
    gs_start_rx()                            gserial_disconnect()
    ...                                      ...
    spin_unlock(&port->port_lock)
    status = usb_ep_queue()                  spin_lock(&port->port_lock)
    spin_lock(&port->port_lock)              port->port_usb = NULL
    gs_free_requests(port->port_usb->in)     spin_unlock(&port->port_lock)
    Crash

This causes thread A to access a null pointer (port->port_usb is null)
when calling the gs_free_requests function, causing a crash.

If port_usb is NULL, the release request will be skipped as it
will be done by gserial_disconnect.

So add a null pointer check to gs_start_io before attempting
to access the value of the pointer port->port_usb.
