So what am I, the user, meant to do? Do I need to worry? What are the
consequences of this?

...
fail:
> +       DRM_WARN("%s: Failed to fetch firmware %s (error %d)\n",
> +                intel_uc_fw_type_repr(uc_fw->type), uc_fw->path, err);

And then my "significant but normal" message has suddenly become a
warning the driver is crippled. Make up your mind, do I need to panic or
not?
