driver core: add device probe log helper
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, ...);
