Reduce chatter on console for usb hotplug.
KERN_ERR is too high severity for these messages, moving them
to KERN_WARNING
It's an error because we have several USB to IDE bridges that have
write back cache drives but report nothing to the caching mode page.
  For them this is a serious error because their data integrity is at
risk.  I'm open to other ways to fix your problem, but downgrading the
message severity because *you* don't have an issue would mask the
problem for others, so it's not really viable.

Is there a way to detect when you have a device of the type where this is a serious issue ? This typically happen for USB drives, but seems to have no effect on them.
