Subject: [PATCH 4.4 064/114] tty: serial: sprd: fix error return code in sprd_probe()

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

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

[ Upstream commit ec085c5a51b768947ca481f90b66653e36b3c566 ]

platform_get_irq() returns an error code, but the sprd_serial driver
ignores it and always returns -ENODEV. This is not correct and,
prevents -EPROBE_DEFER from being propagated properly.

Also, notice that platform_get_irq() no longer returns 0 on error:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=e330b9a6bb35dc7097a4f02cb1ae7b6f96df92af

Print and propagate the return value of platform_get_irq on failure.

This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
