Subject[PATCH] Fix an uninitialised variable warning in the 8250 driver
Date
Fix an uninitialised variable warning in the 8250 driver:

CC drivers/serial/8250.o
drivers/serial/8250.c: In function 'serial8250_shutdown':
drivers/serial/8250.c:1612: warning: 'i' may be used uninitialized in this function

This has the added advantage of removing a conditional test from the main path
as the BUG_ON() that indicated the loop dropped off the end is now bypassed in
the event of a successful search. Indeed that BUG_ON() can now be a BUG() as
the only way to reach it automatically makes its condition true.
