While this change alone is not harmful, I'm afraid that there might
be another reason why we see this message : once buffer_full_cnt is
turned on by the fw and then we reset the Guc, this field may have
stale value as it is not cleared by us/uc and we may wrongly assume
that there was an overflow.

So yay/nay on silencing the test output so I can blissfully ignore it in
bugzilla?

OK to merge, we can debug extra 'notice' logs separately
