We have dtbs_check nowadays and I assume you only saw a such problem
during of hardware bring-up, correct?

Realistically, this error should never happen "randomly" and even if it
will happen, then you will still know that I2C driver failed because
driver-core will tell you about that.

Hence there is no much value in the error message, it should be more
practical to remove it in order to keep the code cleaner.
