[PATCH v2 2/2] mailbox: cix: fix DT property name string typo and use dev_err_probe()
From: kr494167
Date: Wed Aug 12 2026 - 06:22:00 EST
From: Surendra Singh Chouhan <kr494167@xxxxxxxxx>
cix_mbox_probe() logged property error messages referencing
"cix,mbox_dir" (with an underscore) instead of the actual DT property
string "cix,mbox-dir".
Fix the DT property string in error log messages and convert probe error
paths to dev_err_probe().
