When h5_close() is called and !hu->serdev, h5 is directly freed.
However, h5->rx_skb is not freed before h5 is freed, which causes
a memory leak.
Freeing h5->rx_skb (when !hu->serdev) fixes this memory leak before
freeing h5.

Changes in v3:
* Free h5->rx_skb when !hu->serdev, and fix the memory leak
* Do not incorrectly and unnecessarily call serdev_device_close()
Changes in v2:
* Fixed the Fixes tag
Hans de Goede also suggested calling h5_reset_rx() on close (for both,
!hu->serdev
and hu->serdev cases).
However, doing so seems to lead to a null-ptr-dereference error,
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/text?tag=CrashReport&x=136a9a5d900000,
and for this reason, it has not been implemented.
Instead, directly freeing h5->rx_skb seems to suffice in preventing the memory
leak
reported.
And since h5 is freed immediately after freeing h5->rx_skb, assigning
h5->rx_skb to
be NULL isn't necessary.

To fully fix the memleak you also need to add a kfree_skb(h5->rx_skb);
call to the end of h5_serdev_remove(), because in the hu->serdev case
that is where the h5 struct will be free-ed (it is free-ed after that
function exits).
