But then, since Morgana has no right for the trone the civil war will start. And even if Uther acknowledged her after Arthurs death she is still a bastard and has no much real power which would cause quite a mess.

Uther making Morgana his heir would be doable, even if she was born out of wedlock. He had the discretion to name his heir and she'd be the only person with a claim by blood so she'd be accepted, especially if the alternative was civil war.

However, I could see Kilgharrah trying to influence Merlin against Morgana, even without Arthur in the picture.
