Styled after WARN_ON/DRM_ERROR_ON, this prints a mild warning message (a KERN_NOTICE for significant but mild events) that allows us to insert interesting events without alarming the user or bug reporting tools.
For an example I have changed a DRM_ERROR for being unable to set a performance enhancement in i915.
