spi: hisi-kunpeng: Use dev_err_probe() for host registration failure

Browse source

When the SPI core registers the Kunpeng controller it may need to acquire
chip-select GPIO descriptors. If the GPIO provider has not probed yet,
spi_register_controller() returns -EPROBE_DEFER.

On a Kunpeng system this currently prints an alarming error even though the
next deferred-probe retry succeeds:

  hisi-kunpeng-spi HISI03E1:00: failed to register spi host, ret=-517
  hisi-kunpeng-spi HISI03E1:00: hw version:0x30 max-freq:12500 kHz

Use dev_err_probe() so that -EPROBE_DEFER is reported through the deferred
probe mechanism instead of as a hard error, while preserving normal error
reporting for real registration failures.
