This does not compile without warnings.

drivers/gpu/drm/imx/imx-ldb.c: In function ‘imx_ldb_encoder_enable’:
drivers/gpu/drm/imx/imx-ldb.c:201:22: warning: format ‘%d’ expects argument of type ‘int’, but argument 4 has type ‘void *’ [-Wformat=]
  201 |   dev_warn(ldb->dev, "%s: invalid mux %d\n",
      |                      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you want to use ERR_PTR, the %d should be %pe as ERR_PTR
is converting an int a void * to decode the error type and
emit it as a string.
