[PATCH v4 3/5] tty: skip cdev_del() when no cdev is registered

TTY device registration can fail before a cdev is allocated.
Serial core keeps the port so setserial can still use it, and later
removal passes the NULL cdev slot to cdev_del(), causing a NULL-pointer
dereference.

Only delete the cdev when the slot is not NULL.

Fixes: a3a10ce3429e ("Avoid usb reset crashes by making tty_io cdevs truly dynamic")
Fixes: da4c279942b0 ("serial: enable serdev support")
