I do not think dma_set_mask_and_coherent() can return -EPROBE_DEFER, so there
is no point adding dev_err_probe() here.

Hi Lorenzo,
Thanks for your review.
Before making this patch, I referred to the comments of dev_err_probe:
"even if @err is known to never be -EPROBE_DEFER, the benefit compared
to a normal dev_err() is the standardized format of the error code."
In the probe function, I noticed devm_platform_ioremap_resource_byname
already uses dev_err_probe, while other functions still use dev_err.
Replace them with dev_err_probe for consistency, more compact error paths,
and better readability of error codes.
Best regards
Lei
I do not have a strong opinion about it, from my pov it is more clear if we use
dev_err_probe() when it really does something, but up to you.
