If a DRM_ERROR didn't result in a user visible error then it wasn't much
of an error and CI is only complaining because we didn't keep dmesg
clean - i.e. the only bug there would be using DRM_ERROR as a debugging
aide, so yes I'm okay with that. (And if the DRM_ERROR did result in a
user visible error and the only reason CI was complaining was because of
the dmesg spam, then our testing is snafu.)
