Yes, I made them DRM_ERROR, noticed that surrounding code didn't seem to
treat them as errors and made them debug instead.

The ultimate goal I have in mind here is to return the error code and fail
gracefully. Lofty ideals.

In the meantime, it persistently report:

  [drm:ironlake_crtc_dpms] *ERROR* failed to turn off cpu pipe

which is worrying (and indeed the reason why Adam first added the
timeout).
