Nice. Would be nice to see this for other commonly called functions in
probe though we have deal with cases of failure being okay.

What about cases of pr_err, pr_warn, etc.? And the subsystem specific
prints like edac_printk and DRM_ERROR/DRM_DEV_ERROR.

There's also some cases that the irq seems to be optional. They use
dev_info, but will now have an error level print. That's fine with me,
but some may complain...
