Revert "usb: gadget: u_serial: Add null pointer check in gs_start_io"

commit f6c7bc4a6823a0a959f40866a1efe99bd03c2c5b upstream.

This reverts commit ffd603f214237e250271162a5b325c6199a65382.

Commit ffd603f21423 ("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.
