                        Generic Hygrostat: Do not log warning if the hygrostat is already not active
Proposed change
Only log warning if the sensor update failed when the hygrostat is already active. When it is not active, only log a debug message. This helps preventing polluting the log with warnings. One common use case is that the warning is emitted when the generic_hygrostat component is loaded before the platform that provides the sensor.

Is it possible to raise
UpdateFailedinstead? That should only log once.
As far as I understand the issue, even one log of error is not desirable
Actually, I see that it's also the first one you are trying to catch. Is it possible to change the integration load order using manifest.json
dependenciesorafter_dependencies?
Nope, that wouldn't work, we don't know in advance what integration would provide the sensor configured by user.
The PR looks like it meets what you are intending to do, but is there a reason this should not be raising an error?
If you want to mask/downgrade errors that might be generated during an out-of-sequence startup, could you just apply the logic during startup, then after that raise UpdateFailed? Then you could let UpdateFailed manage limiting to a single log entry.
I don't think UpdateFailed is applicable in this context. Also I can imagine a situation when HA has already started, but some of the integrations did not load yet (takes time to connect, etc). I don't think that we need to raise the error in this case.
