During probe every time driver gets resource it should usually check for error printk some message if it is not -EPROBE_DEFER and return the error. This pattern is simple but requires adding few lines after any resource acquisition code, as a result it is often omitted or implemented only partially. dev_err_probe helps to replace such code sequences with simple call, so code: if (err != -EPROBE_DEFER) dev_err(dev, ...); return err; becomes: return dev_err_probe(dev, err, ...); Signed-off-by: Andrzej Hajda <a.hajda@samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Rafael J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
