drivers/usb/serial/mos7720.c: inconsequent NULL checking

The Coverity checker noted the following inconsequent NULL checking in
drivers/usb/serial/mos7720.c:

<-- snip -->

...
static void mos7720_close(struct usb_serial_port *port, struct file *filp)
{
...

/* While closing port, shutdown all bulk read, write *
* and interrupt read if they exists */
if (serial->dev) {
dbg("Shutdown bulk write");
usb_kill_urb(port->write_urb);
dbg("Shutdown bulk read");
usb_kill_urb(port->read_urb);
}

data = 0x00;
send_mos_cmd(serial, MOS_WRITE, port->number - port->serial->minor,
0x04, &data);
...

<-- snip -->

Note that "send_mos_cmd(serial,...)" dereferences "serial->dev".
