    serial: 8250_bcm7271: Fix arbitration handling
    
    [ Upstream commit 15ac1122fd6d4bf408a03e6f23c7ad4f60b22f9e ]
    
    The arbitration of the UART DMA is mishandled for a few
    exceptional cases when probing and releasing the driver.
    
    It is possible that the DMA register spaces are not defined in
    device tree for an instance of the driver, so attempts to access
    the registers in brcmuart_arbitration() would use NULL pointers.
    
    It is also possible for the probe function to return an error
    while still holding the UART DMA. This would prevent the UART
    DMA from being claimed by an instance that could use it.
    
    These errors are addressed by only releasing the UART DMA if it
    is held by this instance (i.e. priv->dma_enabled == 1) and
    directing early error paths in probe to this common release_dma
    handling.
