Use core driver model helper dev_err_probe() defined at
drivers/base/core.c in driver probe path to propagate errors.
standardize and improve the code of deferred probe error handling
using this helper for ingenic usb phy driver.
Inspired by,
commit a787e5400a1ce ("driver core: add device probe log helper")
