I don't think this "improves code readability", IMO you're turning a
clean loop into a unrolled mess.

But then comes the least significant portion of your "problem
description" (i.e. the last words of it), where you indicate that this
would allow you to have different error handling for "qup-memory".

This is actually a valid reason to make this change, so say that!

Please rewrite this message to _start_ with the problem description.
Make it clear on the first line/sentence why the change should be done.

E.g. compare with something like this:

"""
"qup-memory" is an optional interconnect path, unroll the geni_icc_get()
loop in order to allow specific error handling for this path.
"""

You only need to read 4 words to understand exactly why this patch
exists.

To taste, but I think a local variable would be helpful to make this
less dense.

path = devm_of_icc_get(se->dev, "qup-core");
if (IS_ERR(path))
return dev_err_probe(se->dev, PTR_ERR(path), "Failed to get 'qup-core' ICC path\n");
icc_paths[GENI_TO_CORE].path = path;
