It's a very generic message, so it's not ideal. One issue is that
dev_err_probe() replaces any currently stored probe deferral reason
message, which means that we'll override any message previously set. We
don't set any message now, but we should (in rcar_du_encoder_init(),
there are two main code paths where -EPROBE_DEFER is expected), so this
patch would then get in the way I'm afraid.
