[PATCH] driver core: Have dev_err_probe() handle the dev_fmt() macro
From: Christophe JAILLET
Date: Tue Aug 16 2022 - 08:56:53 EST
dev_err() and co. functions handle the dev_fmt() macro if it is defined.
This helps to have a common prefix for all messages generated with this
API.
dev_err_probe() looks like dev_err() but, up to now, does not expand the
dev_fmt() macro.
Add it.

Example of where it would be useful is discussed at:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/aaeba9c12ccdb29f48fe19137cb5abeea85fbb24.1659732652.git.christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx/
I've left the kerneldoc in the .c file near _dev_err_probe(). I don't know
if it should be moved in the .h file close to dev_err_probe().
