Commit 00084f0c01bf ("drm: bridge: thc63lvd1024: Switch to use

replacing hand-rolled code with a helper function.
[...]
While doing so, it
created an error code path at probe time without any error message,
If this is a reason or a concern, then every drm bridges drivers will suffer from
such a concern. Right?
potentially causing probe issues that get annoying to debug.
Sorry, let's keep it fair enough, it creates nothing annoyed.
If there is a probe issues, then, it is caused by ill-behavioral DT.
*NOT* my patch. And should be found during review stage.
If the of_graph_get_remote_node() function is not good enough,
I suggest to improve the of_graph_get_remote_node() function,
then all callers of it will benefits.
Well, the strong word here just terrifying new programmers to call
core function helpers. Please use more *soft* description in the
commit message.
Fix it by
adding an error message.
Fixes: 00084f0c01bf ("drm: bridge: thc63lvd1024: Switch to use of_graph_get_remote_node()")
Please drop the fixes tag at here, append the tag to a real bug-fix patch will make more sense imo.

NOT a single implement like this.
