Subject: [PATCH RESEND] hwmon: pwm-fan: Report probe errors consistently

Printing the error code for a failure provides a head-start for
debugging, since it's often sufficient to pinpoint the origin of the
failure. We already do this for some probe-failure messages, so let's
make the rest of them consistent.
