[PATCH] driver core: Define dev_err_probe() as __cold

[Christophe JAILLET]

Give a hint to the compiler that dev_err_probe() is used for error
handling. So calling paths are unlikely.

>From gcc documentation:
	The paths leading to calls of cold functions within code are marked
	as unlikely by the branch prediction mechanism.
