EPROBE_DEFER error returns are not really critical, since they cancel
the probe process, but the kernel will return later and retry.
However, depending on the probe order, this might issue quite some
verbatim and scary, though pointless messages:
[ 2.388731]
300b000.pinctrl: pin-224 (
5000000.serial) status -517
[ 2.397321]
300b000.pinctrl: could not request pin 224 (PH0) from group PH0 on device
300b000.pinctrl
Replace dev_err() with dev_err_probe(), which not only drops the
priority of the message from error to debug, but also puts some text
into debugfs' devices_deferred file, for later reference.
