[PATCH v2] perf/arm_pmu_platform: Fix an error message related to dev_err_probe() usage

From: Christophe JAILLET
Date: Fri Aug 05 2022 - 16:55:45 EST


dev_err() is a macro that expand dev_fmt, but dev_err_probe() is a
function and cannot perform this macro expansion.

So hard code the "hw perfevents: " prefix and dd a comment explaining why.

Untested, but I can't see how it could work.

v1 --> v2
- fix a typo in the comment
