Subject: [PATCH 3/4] serial: vt8500: Handle uart_add_one_port() failure
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 23:19:18 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111-vt8500-serial-cleanup-v1-3-b33594a25f87@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261111-vt8500-serial-cleanup-v1-0-b33594a25f87@gmail.com>

Return the error from uart_add_one_port() instead of reporting a bound
device for a port that never registered, which would keep its clock
running for nothing. Let devres release the clock and the remaining
resources on that path.

Set the driver data before adding the port, so that the probe can end
on the registration call.

Fixes: 304e12665a4a ("serial: Add support for UART on VIA VT8500 and compatibles")
Reported-by: Sashiko <sashiko-bot@kernel.org>
Closes: https://sashiko.dev/#/bug/linux-ce64cdae-9faa-4109-b7da-29b8a8c99e76
