Easy - replace X with "pci" and Y with "platform/usb" :)

Or in other words:
user: "hey libdrm, how many devices do we have"
libdrm: "hey user, there are 10 devices here."
user: "great, tell me all about them"
libdrm: "sure... well I cannot tell you anything about 3 of them, but
the rest are fine"
user: "why did you stay that they are 10, if there is no info for 3 of them ?"

Fwiw it can be argued either way but I'd suspect that the current
behaviour is not too welcoming.

If people feel for the current behaviour I'kk be ok with it.

Thanks
