They are, and they're still logged as such. Functionally, the only
change is removing the bug filing request.

I should've elaborated this better.

My question is, what makes these cases so special that they warrant
logging a bug filing request? First, I would assume the init paths are
most tested in CI and least likely to trigger a failure on end user
machines. Second, even if they did trigger for the end user, a
non-operational GPU is most likely to lead to a bug report even without
a request.

To me it just seems weird, and I opted to remove them, not least because
it's not common for drivers to do this at all. (And yes, I'd remove the
backlight one too.)

The other option is to embrace logging bug reporting requests. But for
that I'd rather add a separate function, call it at the relevant places,
and not hide it within this complex maze of multi-level debug logging
macros.


BR,
Jani.
