commit f6c7bc4a6823a0a959f40866a1efe99bd03c2c5b upstream. This reverts commitffd603f214. Commitffd603f214("usb: gadget: u_serial: Add null pointer check in gs_start_io") adds null pointer checks at the beginning of the gs_start_io() function to prevent a null pointer dereference. However, these checks are redundant because the function's comment already requires callers to hold the port_lock and ensure port.tty and port_usb are not null. All existing callers already follow these rules. The true cause of the null pointer dereference is a race condition. When gs_start_io() calls either gs_start_rx() or gs_start_tx(), the port_lock is temporarily released for usb_ep_queue(). This allows port.tty and port_usb to be cleared.

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.
