serial: sh-sci: Fix use-after-free on subsequent port startup
sci_request_irq() checks port->irqstr[j] for a NULL pointer, to decide if a fallback interrupt name string should be allocated or not. While this string is freed during port shutdown, the pointer is not zeroed. Hence on a subsequent startup of the port, it will still be pointing to the freed memory, leading to e.g. WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 404 at fs/proc/generic.c:388 __proc_create+0xbc/0x260 name len 0 or to a crash (the latter is more likely with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB=y, due to the poisoning of freed memory). Instead of zeroeing the pointer at multiple places, preinitialize port->irqstr[j] to zero to fix this.
