But there is one, if we fail the pr_err() will not be called, will some
warning be emitter later on?

If so, we should make it clear in the changelog. Lemme check by looking
at that code...

There are several places where the return of this function is propagated
and handled with relevant error messages, but at least one, the most
important, doesn't, i.e. this would be the only message the user would
receive, can you verify that?
