I agree the helper should not impose a common log level. Some platforms intentionally run firmware without a resource table, so forcing a shared dev_info/dev_warn message from the helper would add noise in those cases. I'll rework this in v2 so the helper only handles the return-value behavior, while platform drivers keep control over whether the missing-table case is logged and at what level.
