Subject: [smartpqi updates  PATCH 2/9] smartpqi: rm unsupported controller features msgs

From: Kevin Barnett <kevin.barnett@...rochip.com>

Remove "Feature XYZ not supported by controller" messages.

During driver initialization, the driver examines the PQI Table Feature bits.
These bits are used by the controller to advertise features supported by the
controller. For any features not supported by the controller, the driver would
display a message in the form:
        "Feature XYZ not supported by controller"
Some of these "negative" messages were causing customer confusion.
