size before this patch:

size after:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   3671	    112	      0	   3783	    ec7	drivers/spi/spi-at91-usart.o

Please avoid adding useless error strings in the kernel. This will never
fail and if for some reason this fails an error message would already be
printed anyway.

Strings take space on the storage, increase boot time and RAM usage.
