usb-serial: don't release unregistered minors

This patch (as1121) fixes a bug in the USB serial core. When a device
is unregistered, the core will give back its minors -- even if the
device hasn't been assigned any!

The patch reserves the highest minor value (255) to mean that no minor
was assigned. It also removes some dead code and does a small style
fixup.
