Subject: IB/IPoIB: Remove can't use GFP_NOIO warning
From: Kamal Heib <kamalh@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 0b59970e7d96edcb3c7f651d9d48e1a59af3c3b0 upstream.
Remove the warning print of "can't use of GFP_NOIO" to avoid prints in
each QP creation when devices aren't supporting IB_QP_CREATE_USE_GFP_NOIO.
This print become more annoying when the IPoIB interface is configured
to work in connected mode.
Fixes: 09b93088d750 ('IB: Add a QP creation flag to use GFP_NOIO allocations')
