[PATCH v3 0/5] Add dev_warn_probe() and improve error handling in Rockchip SPI drivers

[Dragan Simic <dsimic@manjaro.org>]

This is a small series that introduces dev_warn_probe() function, which
produces warnings on failed resource acquisitions, and improves error
handling in the probe paths of Rockchip SPI drivers, by using functions
dev_err_probe() and dev_warn_probe() properly in multiple places.

This series also performs a bunch of small, rather trivial code cleanups,
to make the code neater and a bit easier to read.

Changes in v3:
  - Fixed a couple of rather embarrassing issues in patch 4/5 pointed
    out by the kernel test robot, [7] one of them using the va_copy()
    workaround approach already established in the commit 3fbcf75bb41a
    ("efi/printf: Factor out width/precision parsing"), but all this
    really made me think how didn't I notice those issues myself before
    sending the patches, which perhaps slipped by because I didn't take
    the specifics of x86_64 into account :/
  - Added a somewhat lengthy comment to patch 4/5, to explain the newly
    introduced va_copy() workaround, partially reusing the comment found
    in the above-mentioned commit 3fbcf75bb41a
  - Added underscores to the name of the "worker" function in patch 4/5,
    to additionally emphasize its internal nature
  - Adjusted some of the variable names in patch 4/5 a bit to use what
    are seemingly more commonly used names

Changes in v2:
  - Collected three Reviewed-by tags from Heiko [1][2][3]
  - Dropped patch 3/5, [4] as suggested by Mark, [5] improved the check
    to use dev_err_probe() and folded that into new patch 5/5
  - Added new patch 4/5 that introduces function dev_warn_probe() that
    produces warnings in probe paths, to avoid the promotion of logged
    messages from warnings to errors, as noted by Heiko [6]
  - Adjusted the description of the series and of the individual patches
    a bit to reflect the changes, where appropriate
