Subject: scsi: advansys.c: remove DMA build warning message
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The driver was finally converted to the "new" DMA api in newer kernels,
but here in 3.18, it never will happen, so just shut the warning up for
now as obviously no one is going to do anything about it.
