"request_irq() on timer failed" is bad grammar and doesn't convey what 
went wrong. It could be taken to mean that request_irq() was called 
because a timer went off.

Have you considered,

		pr_err("%s: request_irq() failed\n", "timer");

i was uncomfortable with the string contents, since that didn't seem
nonsense and to avoid pondering time over it, it was used.

Your suggestion is definitely better, will use that instead.
