Subject: [PATCH v2] serial: samsung: Checks the return value of function

"uart_add_one_port" function call may fail and return
some error code, so adding a check for return value.
If it is returning some error code, then displaying the
result, unregistering the driver and then returning from
probe function with error code.

Changes since v1:
1. Added support to unregister driver on failure of "uart_add_onr_port"
function call.
2. Commit message updated.
