Subject: [PATCH 5.2 45/61] coresight: Potential uninitialized variable in probe()

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit 0530ef6b41e80c5cc979e0e50682302161edb6b7 upstream.

The "drvdata->atclk" clock is optional, but if it gets set to an error
pointer then we're accidentally return an uninitialized variable instead
of success.
