[PATCH 2/2] usbserial: Fixes leak in serial_open() error path.

[Luiz Fernando Capitulino <lcapitulino@mandriva.com.br>]

 If serial_open() fails at the port assignment or mutex_lock_interruptible()
is interrupted, the 'serial' object will never be freed.

 We should call kref_put() when those errors happens.
