Right, but they should be at debugging level, if someone has a problem they
turn on dynamic debugging for the module and then can see these messages.

To reinforce my point - that's what the drivers in patch 2/2 do already (but are
being moved to this helper) and furthermore this was in result to some reports
looking at this message in bootup thinking it was a problem but it being a red
herring.
