Subject: [PATCH 4.14 114/237] driver core: Print device when resources present in really_probe()

From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@...der.be>

[ Upstream commit 7c35e699c88bd60734277b26962783c60e04b494 ]

If a device already has devres items attached before probing, a warning
backtrace is printed.  However, this backtrace does not reveal the
offending device, leaving the user uninformed.  Furthermore, using
WARN_ON() causes systems with panic-on-warn to reboot.

Fix this by replacing the WARN_ON() by a dev_crit() message.
Abort probing the device, to prevent doing more damage to the device's
resources.
