USB: serial: io_ti: fix another NULL-deref at open

commit 4f9785cc99feeb3673993b471f646b4dbaec2cc1 upstream.

In case a device is left in "boot-mode" we must not register any port
devices in order to avoid a NULL-pointer dereference on open due to
missing endpoints. This could be used by a malicious device to trigger
an OOPS:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000030

[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
 - No heartbeat_work to initialise earlier
 - No separate port_probe and port_remove operations, so add check for null
   port pointers in edge_release()
 - Adjust context]
