Apologies! I missed that. Thank you!

So, there is nothing to do here, then. This stays as dev_err() as per the
change from:
14c4ad125cf9 ("PCI: dwc: Log link speed and width if it comes up")
That said, perhaps adding a comment explaining why this is an error
might help future reference, as the linked commit didn't justify the
change. There also will be redundant messages printed, as per:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.0-rc5/source/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-fu740.c#L207
Which the linked commit didn't take into account, I suppose.
