This suggestion does not match the case that Andre and I were discussing in
https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/1ad4bd2c-e667-42b6-b637-8816a6c60d94@canonical.com/T/#m13fbf9011d74f713080284fb9963c90646d527fb
U_BOOT_DRVINFO(cpu_arm_rndr) is triggering the arm-rndr driver's bind
method. The bind method returns -ENOENT if there is no matching device.
Neither the driver U_BOOT_DRIVER(arm_rndr) nor the driver info
U_BOOT_DRVINFO(cpu_arm_rndr) is missing. It is the non-existence of a
matching device that triggers the messages.
Best regards
Heinrich
