There is no rate limiting in this piece of code unfortunately. So this 
will flood the number of snapshots.

Short-term solution is you can go with a vblank_timeout_cnt and reset it 
in the enable() like other similar error counters.

long-term solution is we need to centralize these error locations to one 
single dpu_encoder_error_handler() with a single counter and the error 
handler will print out the error code along with the snapshot instead of 
the snapshot being called from all over the place.
