I guess the priciple use is to give feedback to the user if a load
error occurs. An alternative could be pr_err at point of error.
What I am trying to avoid is the case where someone attempts to load a
configuration and it fails but there is no feedback. (Once the
resource management patchset set for ETM is used, tnen loading  can
fail if the resources required do not match those avaialble - this is
important given that amount of ETM resource is a hardware design
implementation detail).
