driver core: Better advertise dev_err_probe()
Describing the usage of dev_err_probe() as being (only?) "deemed
acceptable" has a bad connotation. In fact dev_err_probe() fulfills
three tasks:
- handling of EPROBE_DEFER (even more than degrading to dev_dbg())
- symbolic output of the error code
- return err for compact error code paths
Advertise these better and claim the usage to be "fine" to get rid of
the bad connotation.
