iommu: arm: Remove redundant dev_err()/dev_err_probe()

[PATCH] iommu: arm: Remove redundant dev_err()/dev_err_probe()

Posted by Pan Chuang 1 week, 4 days ago

Since commit 55b48e23f5c4 ("genirq/devres: Add error handling in
devm_request_*_irq()"), devm_request_irq() and devm_request_threaded_irq()
automatically log detailed error messages on failure. Remove
the now-redundant driver-specific dev_err() and dev_err_probe() calls.

FWIW, the arm-smmu messages do provide contextual information about 
precisely *which* IRQ in SMMU terms was at fault, which generic code 
cannot do - the context/global index gives the developer enough to go 
and directly check the relevant DT/ACPI entry, without first having to 
figure out what hardware resource the Linux vIRQ number represents. 
However I do concur that the generic code is now more than enough for 
the general "something is terribly wrong" case, and beyond that we 
really don't need to optimise Linux for people writing bad firmware...
