Smatch reports: drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_bcm7271.c:1120 brcmuart_probe() warn: 'baud_mux_clk' from clk_prepare_enable() not released on lines: 1032. In the function brcmuart_probe(), baud_mux_clk was not correctly released in subsequent error handling, which may cause memory leaks. To fix this issue, an error handling branch, err_clk_put, is added to release the variable using clk_put(), and an err_disable branch is added to meet the requirement of balancing clk_disable and clk_enable calls.
