[PATCH v2 0/5] Add dev_warn_probe() and improve error handling in Rockchip SPI drivers

This is a small series that introduces dev_warn_probe() function, which
produces warnings on failed resource acquisitions, and improves error
handling in the probe paths of Rockchip SPI drivers, by using functions
dev_err_probe() and dev_warn_probe() properly in multiple places.

This series also performs a bunch of small, rather trivial code cleanups,
to make the code neater and a bit easier to read.

Changes in v2:
  - Collected three Reviewed-by tags from Heiko [1][2][3]
  - Dropped patch 3/5, [4] as suggested by Mark, [5] improved the check
    to use dev_err_probe() and folded that into new patch 5/5
  - Added new patch 4/5 that introduces function dev_warn_probe() that
    produces warnings in probe paths, to avoid the promotion of logged
    messages from warnings to errors, as noted by Heiko [6]
  - Adjusted the description of the series and of the individual patches
    a bit to reflect the changes, where appropriate
