driver core: add device probe log helper

Browse source 
During probe every time driver gets resource it should usually check for
error printk some message if it is not -EPROBE_DEFER and return the error.
This pattern is simple but requires adding few lines after any resource
acquisition code, as a result it is often omitted or implemented only
partially.
dev_err_probe helps to replace such code sequences with simple call,
so code:
	if (err != -EPROBE_DEFER)
		dev_err(dev, ...);
	return err;
becomes:
	return dev_err_probe(dev, err, ...);

/**
* dev_err_probe - probe error check and log helper
* @dev: the pointer to the struct device
* @err: error value to test
* @fmt: printf-style format string
* @...: arguments as specified in the format string
*
* This helper implements common pattern present in probe functions for error
* checking: print debug or error message depending if the error value is
* -EPROBE_DEFER and propagate error upwards.
* It replaces code sequence:
* if (err != -EPROBE_DEFER)
* dev_err(dev, ...);
* else
* dev_dbg(dev, ...);
* return err;
* with
* return dev_err_probe(dev, err, ...);
*
* Returns @err.
