I was in and out on this until I decided to include it for cases
where we vfio assign a number of functions from the same card - if rom
loading fails for one, it will most probably fail for others as
well and this will make sure to print it just once at bootup.
However, this also means that it will print once for unrelated assignments
too, I kind of half-convinced myself that that's probably ok :)
Would you rather have this get printed for each assigned device if loading
fails ?
