Semantic doesn't change. The code does exactly the same as before. If it didn't
I either would have provided a comment about this or just didn't introduce the
change in the first place. I guess you just don't see the whole picture of the
method. Take a look in the code. The ret variable's been used to skip the
"p->uartclk = rate" assignment. That's it. So the (rate == 0) will still be
considered as error condition, which causes the clock rate left unchanged.
Here is the code diff so you wouldn't need to dive deep into the driver
sources:

<	clk_disable_unprepare(d->clk);
<	rate = clk_round_rate(d->clk, baud * 16);
<	if (rate < 0)
<		ret = rate;
<	else if (rate == 0)
<		ret = -ENOENT;
<	else
<		ret = clk_set_rate(d->clk, rate);
<	clk_prepare_enable(d->clk);
<
<	if (ret)
<		goto out;
<
<	p->uartclk = rate;
<
<out:
