Subject: [PATCH 4.15 46/55] serial: 8250_uniphier: fix error return code in uniphier_uart_probe()

4.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Wei Yongjun <weiyongjun1@...wei.com>

commit 7defa77d2baca4d6eb85234f10f38ab618332e75 upstream.

Fix to return a negative error code from the port register error
handling case instead of 0, as done elsewhere in this function.
