From: Yunfei Wang <yf.wang at mediatek.com>

The same physical address can be mapped multiple times, and it is not
required to have attributes such as DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC, but
dma_debug_entry will report an warning if active_cacheline_insert
returns -EEXIST, which can cause a lot of trouble.

For example, if two dma engine share the same dma-buf, the two dma
engine drivers will call the DMA API to map their own dma address
respectively, which is normal follow, but dma_debug_entry will
report an warning.

In addition, if active_cacheline_insert returns -EEXIST, the
active_cacheline_inc_overlap function already has the logic to
check overlapping mappings counter, if it exceeded
ACTIVE_CACHELINE_MAX_OVERLAP overlapping mappings, it already
has a warning.
And also, if warning as panic is turned on, it will cause KE.

So, dma_debug_entry does not need report warning.
