[PATCH] serial: ns16550: fix memory leak of linux_earlycon_name on probe failure

[Alexander Shiyan]

When console_register() fails, the dynamically allocated
linux_earlycon_name string was not freed, leading to a memory leak.
Add a free_const() call on the error path to release it.

Also simplify the success path by returning 0 directly after
successful registration, making the code more readable.
