commit 6e690d54cfa802f939cefbd2fa2c91bd0b8bd1b6 upstream.
If port->mapbase = NULL in serial8250_request_std_resource() , it need return a error code instead of 0. If uart_set_info() fail to request new regions by serial8250_request_std_resource() but the return value of serial8250_request_std_resource() is 0, The system incorrectly considers that the resource application is successful and does not attempt to restore the old setting. A null pointer reference is triggered when the port resource is later invoked.
