The following message shows up one or more times when booting a Qualcomm
SA8775 Development board:

    qcom-spmi-gpio c440000.spmi:pmic@2:gpio@8800: can't add gpio chip

Convert this over to use dev_err_probe() to silence this message.

There is a bug in DTS. I'll send a patch.

Thanks for sending that. I didn't look at the DTS. Let's just drop the
patch that I posted here since that message may help someone in the
future identify this same type of issue for another platform.
