The driver write_room and chars_in_buffer callbacks used to incorrectly
return a negative errno in case they were ever called with a NULL port
driver-data pointer. The return value was later changed to zero by
commit 23198fda71 ("tty: fix chars_in_buffers") but the bogus sanity
checks were left in place as were the outdated function-header comments.
The port driver data isn't cleared until after the port has been
deregistered and all open ttys have been hung up so drop the unnecessary
sanity checks and the outdated comments.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
