Does it need to be buggy to inform the user of such inconsistence?

I already said that I'm ok to change the dev_warn(), you just have to
tell me what is the best message level to use.

We already know that a FM or FM+ supports lower frequencies due backyard
capabilities.

It is clear to me that the I2C devices on I3C bus shall support FM or
FM+.
If not they don't follow the MIPI I3C spec and for that reason I prefer
to inform the user.

Please take some time to analyze it again, my concern is only to inform
the user about inconsistencies (forced or not) with the I3C specification
and I already agreed to change the message levels.

Best regards,
