This is the idea behind original DMATEST module logic.
As far as I understand we would like to have them as warnings in case
when driver is compiled in and tests are run from the beginning.

Though, I sent a correction patch that moves "No error" messages to
debug level which, I think, makes sense. I don't know why Dan still keep
silent on my last message in the discussion [1].
