Ensure that all error handling branches print error information. In this
way, when this function fails, the upper-layer functions can directly
return an error code without missing debugging information. Otherwise,
the error message will be printed redundantly or missing.

When an allocation fails, there is a callstack showed. It is not necessary to print an error in this case.

ret = thermal_add_hwmon_sysfs(tz);
  	if (ret) {
+		dev_err(dev, "Failed to add hwmon sysfs attributes\n");
  		devres_free(ptr);
  		return ret;
  	}

That should not display an error. The call site will take care of that.
