Re: [PATCH] drm/ttm: Print the memory decryption status just once

Ping on this one. If we don't want the "_once" then I can quickly
prepare a patch that just removes the logging altogether, because
while useful it's polluting up the kernel logs too much right now so
getting a fix in for 6.9 for this would be great.
