uniphier_uart_probe() calls clk_prepare_enable() on priv->clk before it
reads the port properties, but returns directly when
uart_read_port_properties() fails, leaving the clock prepared and
enabled.
The intent is clear from the surrounding code: the next error path, when
serial8250_register_8250_port() fails, calls clk_disable_unprepare(), as
does uniphier_uart_remove(). Add the missing call so the early failure
behaves the same way.
Found by smatch:
drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_uniphier.c:232 uniphier_uart_probe() warn: 'priv->clk' from clk_prepare_enable() not released on lines: 205.
Fixes: 26e8349c0d76 ("serial: 8250_uniphier: Switch to use uart_read_port_properties()")

Why not using devm_clk_get_enabled() instead?
