How about use dev_info always? We get a dev_err message from
soc_init_dai_link in error cases...

ret = soc_init_dai_link(card, dai_link);
if (ret && ret != -EPROBE_DEFER) {
dev_info(card->dev, "ASoC: failed to init link %s: %d\n",
dai_link->name, ret);
}
if (ret) {
soc_cleanup_platform(card);
mutex_unlock(&client_mutex);
return ret;
}
