[ Upstream commit e5028011885a85032aa3c1b7e3e493bcdacb4a0a ]

Running the following command on Juno triggers the warning:

 $ perf record -e cs_etm// -m ,128M ...

With the flat mode, we only attempt to allocate large memory if there is an IOMMU
connected to the ETR. If the allocation fails, we always have a fallback path
and return an error if nothing else worked. So, suppress the warning for flat
mode allocations.
