serial: samsung: Fix ERR pointer dereference on deferred probe

When the clk_get() of "uart" clock returns EPROBE_DEFER, the next re-probe
finishes with success but uses invalid (ERR_PTR) values.  This leads to
dereferencing of ERR_PTR stored under ourport->clk:

12c30000.serial: Controller clock not found
(...)
12c30000.serial: ttySAC3 at MMIO 0x12c30000 (irq = 61, base_baud = 0) is a S3C6400/10
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fffffdfb

The first unsuccessful clk_get() causes s3c24xx_serial_init_port() to
exit with failure but the s3c24xx_uart_port is left half-configured
(e.g. port->mapbase is set, clk contains ERR_PTR).  On next re-probe,
the function s3c24xx_serial_init_port() will exit early with success
because of configured port->mapbase and driver will use old values,
including the ERR_PTR as clock.

Fix this by cleaning the port->mapbase on error path so each re-probe
will initialize all of the port settings.
