dev_err_probe() with a fixed error code doesn't seem to make much sense,
the whole point is to handle deferral but for a straight lookup like
this that can't happen.

The error code is uniformly formatted and the error path is more compact.

IMHO, to benefit of these feature, it makes sense to use it even with a fixed
error code.

I'm not convinced TBH, the fixed error code smells pretty bad.

Ok. I'll keep the dev_err() for the fixed errors then, and use the dev_err_probe() for the others, would that be ok ?

Best regards,
