Hey,

Again, you rather want drm_err() with drm_dev here.

I've briefly looked over the series and many patches seem affected.
Please prefer drm_ logging functions and DRM devices over the plain
device equivalents.

Thanks. I will submit a v2 with consistent usage of drm_err().

Thanks

Also, is there any ongoing task or would it be useful to submit patches
changing the usage of DRM_DEV_* functions with drm_* equivalents?
Or from dev_* to drm_* when possible ?

Possibly. DRM_DEV_ logging is supposed to be replaced with drm_ logging helpers. That would be a simple follow-up series. Whether to prefer drm_ over dev_ logging depends on the context and the driver maintainer.

Best regards
Thomas

BR,
Diogo
