Utilize the %pe print specifier to get the symbolic error name as a
string (i.e "-ENOMEM") in the log message instead of the error code to
increase its readablility.

This change was suggested in

If desired I can send a v2 containing another patch which refactors the
usages of printk into their respective pr_* aliases, but I wanted to
keep this consistent to the usages in rest of the file and do one change
at a time.

Cheers,

Yes let's please keep that separate, not a huge fan of conversions of that
