Refactor the device tree parsing logic in axis_fifo_probe() to reduce
verbosity and simplify error handling.

Remove the verbose error logging and goto logic. Instead, check
of_property_read_u32() return values directly and propagate error codes
immediately. This aligns the driver with modern kernel standards by
removing unnecessary error messages during probe.

Changes in v7:
 - Reverted variable name and type from 'u32 width' back to the 
   original 'unsigned int value' to minimize unnecessary diff noise.
 - Removed extra blank lines between function calls and error 
   checks to keep the diff as compact as possible.

Changes in v6:
 - Removed the axis_fifo_get_u32() helper function entirely.
 - Removed all dev_err() calls in axis_fifo_parse_dt() as the 
   driver core already reports probe failures.
 - Kept the 'node' local variable to avoid checkpatch line 
   length warnings.
 - Fixed checkpatch style warning (missing blank line after 
   declarations).
 - Ensured a newline exists at the end of the file.

Changes in v5:
 - Added missing newline at the end of axis-fifo.c.

Changes in v4:
 - Removed extra blank lines in the commit message.
 - Added "rx" and "tx" prefixes to error messages (these 
   messages were later removed in v6).

Changes in v3:
 - Split the original monolithic v2 patch into two separate 
   patches to isolate logic refactoring from type alignment.

Changes in v2:
 - Fixed checkpatch.pl coding style issues regarding 
   indents and line formatting.

Changes in v1:
 - Initial submission.

You moved &value to the previous line which is the right thing.  But,
please, don't make these unrelated white space changes in the same patch.
You can do it in a separate patch but they make the diff harder to
review.
