[PATCH 0/4] video: of: display_timing: Adjust err printing of of_get_display_timing()

From: Douglas Anderson

As reported by Sam Ravnborg [1], after commit b8a2948fa2b3
("drm/panel: simple: Add ability to override typical timing") we now
see a pointless error message printed on every boot for many systems.
Let's fix that by adjusting who is responsible for printing error
messages when of_get_display_timing() is used.

Most certainly we can bikeshed the topic about whether this is the
right fix or we should instead add logic to panel_simple_probe() to
avoid calling of_get_display_timing() in the case where there is no
"panel-timing" sub-node. If there is consensus that I should move the
fix to panel_simple_probe() I'm happy to spin this series. In that
case we probably should _remove_ the extra prints that were already
present in the other two callers of of_get_display_timing().

While at it, fix a missing of_node_put() found by code inspection.

NOTE: amba-clcd and panel-lvds were only compile-tested.
