Commit a65a6f14 ("USB: serial: fix race between probe and open") fixed a race between probe and open, which could lead to crashes when a not yet fully initialised port was being opened. This race was later incidentally closed by commit 7e73eca6 ("TTY: move cdev_add to tty_register_device") which moved character-device registration from tty_register_driver to tty_register_device, which isn't called until the port has been fully set up. Remove the now redundant workaround which had the negative side effect of not allowing a port to be opened immediately after user space had been notified of a new tty device.
