Return value would give clear information about the actual root-cause
of the failure.

I'm not sure why that is as nearly every error path in
sdhci_add_host emits a message.

If this is really desirable, there are many other callers of
sdhci_add_host with error messages just like this one.

Not for everything.
No error message for -EPROBE_DEFER.

Yes, true.
Ho about, adding pr_err into sdhci_add_host for -EPROBE_DEFER.
