In the probe path, dev_err() can be replaced with dev_err_probe()
which will check if error code is -EPROBE_DEFER and prints the
error name. It also sets the defer probe reason which can be
checked later through debugfs. It's more simple in error path.

I'd prefer to have received these patches as a patchset rather than
individual patches... but it is a good change so:

Oops. My last mail neglected to mention that you did not sign off your
changes (meaning we cannot accept them). When you re-send this please
add a SoB and combine with the other similar patches.
