If you look at device_del() you see that it calls driver_deferred_probe_del()
which frees the reason string. Means you're right in a way that storing
the deferral reason doesn't provide any benefit here, but it also doesn't
hurt.
Good thing about using dev_err_probe() is also that it prints a debug info
in case of deferral what may help people chasing an issue involving this
deferral.
