[PATCH] ARM: OMAP2+: l2c: squelch warning dump on power control setting

ROM code on AM437x does not support writing to L2C-310 power control
register. The L2C driver, however, tries writing to this register for
all revisions >= r3p0.

This leads to a warning dump on boot which leads most users to believe
that L2 cache is non-functional.

Since the problem is understood, and cannot be addressed through software,
replace the warning with a pr_info() while maintaining the WARN_ON() for
other truly unexpected scenarios.
