somewhere in the dmesg (if someone/CI was clever enough) maybe yes

but in bug reports usually only the WARN is included, so exposing some
basic info here for quicker triage

there was no such requirement (but we can add that if needed)

note that code is based on drm_WARN() which also doesn't work with NULL
