Can you please give an example of a case where dpu_hw_*_init() can 
return NULL?

All dpu_hw_*_init() functions are only called if the corresponding
hw*_counts are valid. So I would like to understand this.

Now, if NULL is treated as a non-error case, should we atleast print
a message indicating so?
