Subject: [PATCH] ttm/dma: Remove the WARN() which is not useful.

. It was useful during development, but now on a production system
we can get this (if the user forgot to upload the firmware):

[drm] radeon: irq initialized.
[drm] GART: num cpu pages 131072, num gpu pages 131072
[drm] radeon: ib pool ready.
[drm] Loading SUMO Microcode

The big WARN() has nothing to do with the culprit - which is that
the firmware was not loaded. So lets remove the WARN() from the TTM DMA code.
