As I mentioned, use a rule of thumb:

- when devm_ is used in the function, error messages may be converted to
dev_err_probe() as devm_ is supposed to be used only at ->probe() stage

- try to avoid ping-pong type of changes when the same line is modified
2+ times in a row in the same series (there are exceptions, but not here)
