From: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Error string and comment say we fall back to a default, but in reality we bailed out. Refactor the code to use the core helper which then matches the described behaviour. While updating the init message anyhow, shorten it while we are here; no need for versioning there as well and the name is already given via pr_fmt.
