Probe deferral is not really an error, and we typically suppress any
error messages otherwise printed when a subsystem requests it to avoid
noise during boot. (There is a debug statement in driver core that
anyone interested can enable instead).

So this should really be

        if (IS_ERR(DC)) {
                ret = PTR_ERR(dc);
                if (ret != -EPROBE_DEFER)
                        dev_err(dev, ...);
                goto err;
        }
