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.
Needs an SoB.

Remove the "Error: The " from the beginning of the string:
dev_err_probe() adds an error tag and the resulting line will read
better with a "The " at the beginning.
OK.

Thanks,
