Subject: [2.6.35-rc3] correct console log level when ERST ACPI table is not 
	found

When booting 2.6.35-rc3 on a x86 system without an ERST ACPI table
with the 'quiet' option, we still observe an "ERST: Table is not
found!" warning.

Quiesce it to the same info log level as the other 'table not found' warnings.
