[PATCH] drm: Reduce EDID warnings from DRM_ERROR to DRM_NOTE

Chris Wilson chris at chris-wilson.co.uk
Fri Feb 10 19:59:13 UTC 2017


The warnings from parsing the EDID are not driver errors, but the
"normal but significant" conditions from the external device. As such,
they do not need the ferocity of an *ERROR*, but can use the less harsh
DRM_NOTE instead.
