In quite a few cases an errorstring is generated using snprintf() before it's passed to dev_err(). This indirection is unnecessary and all information can simply be passed directly to dev_err() instead. The errrorstring and ERRORLENGTH definitions are removed entirely. While at it, rephrase the error messages to provide more context where possible. Also, fix a few incorrectly used format specifier (e.g. %x02 -> %02x) in those messages.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
