After a port unplug operation, the port->info->have_data() pointer was
set to NULL.  The problem is, the ->info struct is shared by all ports,
effectively disabling writes to other ports.

Discussed with Amit over irc, I think that we are missing setup of
have_data for non console devices, but that is a different bug that the
one being fixed here.

Later, Juan.

Actually other virtio_serial devices will provide their own have_data,
like spice did earlier (now it's a chardev, so it uses this code
path).

I think the bug is that we should set have_data regardless of a chardev
backend and call qemu_chr_write() in have_data only if a chardev
exists.
