Agreed, but while at it:
  1. This is not the only driver doing this, so you might as well go fix all of them
     in a series (toshiba tcxxxx, lontium, chipone.... check them, the error message
     is exactly the same even, that'd take 3 seconds);
  2. I've just noticed that, in this driver, of_node_put() is never called for the
     `mipi_host_node`, so the reference is never dropped... but that can come later
     and not necessarily in the eventual series that fixes the err message strategy.

In the meanwhile, for this commit
