USB: serial: don't call release without attach
This patch (as1295) fixes a recently-added bug in the USB serial core. If certain kinds of errors occur during probing, the core may call a serial driver's release method without previously calling the attach method. This causes some drivers (io_ti in particular) to perform an invalid memory access. The patch adds a new flag to keep track of whether or not attach has been called.
