Subject: [PATCH 3/3] regulator: bd718x7: Use dev_err_probe()

The dev_err_probe() has (at least) following benefits over dev_err()
when printing an error print for a failed function call at a device
driver probe:
        - Omit error level print if error is 'EPRBE_DEFER'
        - Standardized print format for returned error
        - return the error value allowing shortening calls like:

        if (ret) {
                dev_err(...);
                return ret;
        }

        to

        if (ret)
                return dev_err_probe(...);

Convert the ROHM BD718x7 regulator driver to use the dev_err_probe() when
returned error is not hard-coded constant.

NOTE:
This commit also changes the error handling path to return immediately
from a spot where the error is spotted instead of using a single point
of exit.

For many years I have preferred a single point of exit in a function
when managing it does not require any big tricks. In my experience a
single point of exit makes resource-leaking and lock releasing much less
error prone. Eg, consider mistakes like:

...
mutex_lock(&mtx)
...
if (err)
	return err;
...
mutex_unlock(&mtx);

return 0;

Vs.

...
mutex_lock(&mtx)
...
if (err)
	goto err_out;
...

err_out:
mutex_unlock(&mtx);

return err;

I still think a single point of exit is often a good idea. However, I am
slowly adapting to thought that the single point of exit does not really
play a big role in bd718x7 regulator probe and using dev_err_probe()
allows us to avoid the extra {} after condition... So, maybe it indeed
is a time for me to ditch the goto here. Please, let me know if you
think othervice :)
