3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Cyrille Pitchen <cyrille.pitchen@xxxxxxxxx> commit 6fbb9bdf0f3fbe23aeff806489791aa876adaffb upstream. -EDEFER error wasn't handle properly by atmel_serial_probe(). As an example, when atmel_serial_probe() is called for the first time, we pass the test_and_set_bit() test to check whether the port has already been initalized. Then we call atmel_init_port(), which may return -EDEFER, possibly returned before by clk_get(). Consequently atmel_serial_probe() used to return this error code WITHOUT clearing the port bit in the "atmel_ports_in_use" mask. When atmel_serial_probe() was called for the second time, it used to fail on the test_and_set_bit() function then returning -EBUSY. When atmel_serial_probe() fails, this patch make it clear the port bit in the "atmel_ports_in_use" mask, if needed, before returning the error code.
