[2/2] tty: serial: samsung_tty: Fix a memory leak in s3c24xx_serial_getclk() when iterating clk

When the best clk is searched, we iterate over all possible clk.

If we find a better match, the previous one, if any, needs to be freed.
If a better match has already been found, we still need to free the new
one, otherwise it leaks.

Fixes: 5f5a7a5578c5 ("serial: samsung: switch to clkdev based clock lookup")

This patch is speculative. Review with care.

I think that some clk_put() are also missing somewhere else in the driver
but won't be able to investigate further.

what is the case when *best_clk has an error in it?

The initial one? Open the place where the function is being called.
