This driver dooen't even use DMA mode so warning about forcing the setting
may be puzzling.  In addition we do the same thing cs5520_reinit_one()
but without warning the user this time.  Thus removal of the warning makes
it easier for *_reinit_one() replacement by ->init_host method later
(patch is ready for this).
