No!

First, calling clk_put() on the error pointer is incorrect. This will 
throw a warning in __clk_put(), but generally passing an error pointer 
to another function can cause different kinds of breakage.

Second, you have added the line, but this also moved the return 
statement out of the if condition. This way all bcm_uart_probe() calls 
will end up with -ENODEV return value.

Please stop blindly fixing the coccinelle warnings. Take care to read 
and understand the code.

Ran, as was pointed out before, you obviously didn't even test this
patch, nor any of the other submissions you made.

Please take the time to learn C a bit better, and then start out in a
part of the kernel where basic changes are accepted, like
drivers/staging/ so that you can learn how to properly send patches
(this was incorrectly sent as well.)

Then you can work up to attempting to fix other changes like this, if
they are correct, and you will know how to properly test your changes
instead of just making rote changes like this without understanding the
implications of them.

best of luck!
