find_cirrus_companion_amps() currently only handles CS35L54/56/57, and
when that patch was sent it also converted all quirks using those
devices so they _don't_ call comp_generic_fixup(). The purpose of the
warning was to detect people adding a quirk that tried to do the old
way of manual component binding setup from the quirk.

The remaining quirks that call comp_generic_fixup() are for CS35L41/51,
which we haven't converted yet because there are many more models, some
with strange ACPI and some that are old models we can't easily get hold
of to re-test.
