'Use suitable format specifier' is obscure and not specific.

All the subjects should likely be something like

[PATCH] subsystem: Use vsprintf extension %pe for symbolic error name

And this could use a separator between regmap and errname like

		dev_err(&i2c->dev, "Failed to register i2c regmap: %pe\n",
or
		dev_err(&i2c->dev, "Failed to register i2c regmap - %pe\n",
