There are more than 700 calls to the devm_request_threaded_irq method.
Most drivers only request one interrupt resource, and these error
messages are basically the same. If error messages are printed
everywhere, more than 1000 lines of code can be saved by removing the
msg in the driver.

...

+int devm_request_threaded_irq_emsg(struct device *dev, unsigned int irq,

+ if (rc && rc != -EPROBE_DEFER) {
+ dev_err(dev, "Failed to request %sinterrupt %u %s %s: %pe\n",
+ thread_fn ? "threaded " : "", irq, devname ? : dev_name(dev),
+ emsg ? : "", ERR_PTR(rc));
It is open-coding dev_err_probe(). Just use dev_err_probe instead.
dev_err_probe is supposed to be only called in probe functions, while
devm_request_threaded_irq might be called in other contexts (e.g. when a
device is opened). That's why I asked to not use dev_err_probe() in v2
True, but then all the callers of this function will forget to set
deferred probe reason.


So let's use dev_err_probe?


BTW, any suggestions for names here, keep using devm_request_threaded_irq_emsg or change to a new name?

I am afraid that after more drivers are changed in the follow-up series, the name will need to be changed again.


Thx,

Yangtao
