Name error labels after what they do, not where jump from (e.g.
"err_disable_clk").

You can't just deregister the serial driver if probe of a single port
fails. What if there are more than one port?
Looks like the driver has the same bug in remove(). What a mess... Added
by 6f134c3c7703 ("serial: samsung: Move uart_register_driver call to
device probe") in 2014.
And the clocks are never disabled and released in case
uart_register_driver() fails above either.
