It comes to the question whether this message must be shown verbosely as an error at all. EPROBE_DEFER is usually a mechanism for the delayed probe, and it doesn't indicate an error per se. dev_err() is, OTOH, for real errors that have to be notified to user inevitably. That's why "quiet" boot option still shows it.
