"uart_add_one_port" function call may fail and return some error code, so adding a check for return value. If it is returning some error code, then displaying the result, unregistering the driver and then returning from probe function with error code. Signed-off-by: Tamseel Shams <m.shams@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- Changes since v1: 1. Added support to unregister driver on failure of "uart_add_onr_port" function call. 2.
