Subject: [PATCH] driver core: platform: Add an error message to platform_get_irq*()

A grep of the kernel shows that many drivers print an error message if
they fail to get the irq they're looking for. Furthermore, those drivers
all decide to print the device name, or not, and the irq they were
requesting, or not, etc. Let's consolidate all these error messages into
the API itself, allowing us to get rid of the error messages in each
driver.

Yes it should. Just by coincidence, I got around to implementing this
patch yesterday after I bemoaned this on the list a few months ago[1].

That could be done with some macro magic to add __line__ and __FILE__
into a definition of the "important" functions. In that sense nothing
would really need to change besides the implementation, right?

I also started working on a cocci script to fix up the call sites to
drop the extra prints, but I'm really bad at writing semantic patches so
please help improve the below. My simple grep shows that we can remove
~500 error prints out of the 1500 places the platform_get_irq()
functions are called.
