If you want shorter lines, I'd prefer

	if (IS_ERR(drv_data->dma_rx_channel)) {
		ret = PTR_ERR(drv_data->dma_rx_channel);
		return dev_err_probe(dev, ret, "...\n");
	}

over
	ret = PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO(drv_data->dma_rx_channel);
	if (ret)
		return dev_err_probe(dev, ret, "\n");

even though it's one line longer because the if body needs curly braces.
I think it's easier to parse for a human which IMHO matters more than
the additional line. But I'm aware that might be subjective.

Best regards
Uwe
