These provide useful information when things don't work out right. For
example, imx-drm's crtc components are completely silent, like Dove's
armada-drm components as well. etnaviv is actually silent from the
component bind functions: it's only afterwards when we initialise the
GPUs that were found that we print anything there.

So, I don't deem them to be redundant.
