Deferred driver probing shouldn't result in errors or warnings being logged, because their presence in the kernel log provides no value and may actually cause false impression that some issues exist. Thus, let's no longer produce error messages when getting the dphy results in deferred probing. This prevents misleading error messages like the following one, which was observed on a Pine64 PineTab2, from appearing in the kernel log. To make matters worse, the following error message was observed appearing multiple times in the kernel log of a single PineTab2 boot: dw-mipi-dsi-rockchip fe060000.dsi: [drm:dw_mipi_dsi_rockchip_probe \ [rockchipdrm]] *ERROR* failed to get mipi dphy: -517 At the same time, make the adjusted logged message a bit more consistent with the other logged messages by capitalizing its first word.
