USB: serial: fix potential NULL-dereference at probe

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1642572

commit 126d26f6 upstream.

Make sure we have at least one port before attempting to register a
console.

Currently, at least one driver binds to a "dummy" interface and requests
zero ports for it. Should such an interface also lack endpoints, we get
a NULL-deref during probe.
