[PATCH master 2/3] commands: usbserial: prevent double free

usbserial -d may be called more than once, which now results in removal
of a driver that may already be removed leading to double frees.

usbgadget -d doesn't suffer from this as both usb_multi_register and
usb_multi_unregister keep around a global variable to check if the
gadget is currently registered. Let's do likewise for usb_serial_unregister.
