Same thought here, though dpu_encoder_phys_cmd_wait_for_tx_complete
exists for the sole reason of printing a nice debug message, which I
wouldn't want to be misused by dpu_encoder_phys_cmd_wait_for_commit_done
punting its errors on wait_for_tx_complete - if that happens the first
thing I'd do during debugging is assign individual messages to both,
otherwise it is impossible to know which two functions is the cause: we
might as well "duplicate" the error message right now and prevent such
confusion from occurring in the first place?
