The check and warning are very specific to the SPD usage of the i801
driver. That was fine as long as i801 was the only caller of
i2c_register_spd(). Now that piix4 will be added as another user of that
function, the check and warning are not accurate anymore.
Instead of introducing a more complicated calling protocol only to print
a warning, drop the warning.
Even in cases where not all slots can be probed,
then at least probe the 8 slots that can be.
