serial: Fix not set tty->port race condition

Revert commit bfc467db60b7 ("serial: remove redundant
tty_port_link_device()") because the tty_port_link_device() is not
redundant: the tty->port has to be confured before we call
uart_configure_port(), otherwise user-space can open console without TTY
linked to the driver.

This tty_port_link_device() was added explicitly to avoid this exact
issue in commit fb2b90014d78 ("tty: link tty and port before configuring
it as console"), so offending commit basically reverted the fix saying
it is redundant without addressing the actual race condition presented
there.

Reproducible always as tty->port warning on Qualcomm SoC with most of
devices disabled, so with very fast boot, and one serial device being
the console:

printk: legacy console [ttyMSM0] enabled
printk: legacy console [ttyMSM0] enabled
printk: legacy bootconsole [qcom_geni0] disabled
printk: legacy bootconsole [qcom_geni0] disabled
------------[ cut here ]------------
tty_init_dev: ttyMSM driver does not set tty->port. This would crash the kernel. Fix the driver!

Apparently the flow with this small Yocto-based ramdisk user-space is:

driver (qcom_geni_serial.c): user-space:
============================ ===========
qcom_geni_serial_probe()
uart_add_one_port()
serial_core_register_port()
serial_core_add_one_port()
uart_configure_port()
register_console()
|
| open console
| ...
| tty_init_dev()
| driver->ports[idx] is NULL
|
tty_port_register_device_attr_serdev()
tty_port_link_device() <- set driver->ports[idx]
