Wenhua Lin 3f7a5d52a4 serial: sprd: Return -EPROBE_DEFER when uart clock is not ready 
[ Upstream commit 29e8a0c587 ]

In sprd_clk_init(), when devm_clk_get() returns -EPROBE_DEFER
for either uart or source clock, we should propagate the
error instead of just warning and continuing with NULL clocks.

Currently the driver only emits a warning when clock acquisition
fails and proceeds with NULL clock pointers. This can lead to
issues later when the clocks are actually needed. More importantly,
when the clock provider is not ready yet and returns -EPROBE_DEFER,
we should return this error to allow deferred probing.

This change adds explicit checks for -EPROBE_DEFER after both:
1. devm_clk_get(uport->dev, uart)
2. devm_clk_get(uport->dev, source)

When -EPROBE_DEFER is encountered, the function now returns
-EPROBE_DEFER to let the driver framework retry probing
later when the clock dependencies are resolved.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
