Borislav Petkov f3f07ae425 x86/umip: Downgrade warning messages to debug loglevel
After four years in the wild, those have not fullfilled their
initial purpose of pushing people to fix their software to not use
UMIP-emulated instructions, and to warn users about the degraded
emulation performance.

Yet, the only thing that "degrades" performance is overflowing dmesg
with those:

  [Di Sep  7 00:24:05 2021] umip_printk: 1345 callbacks suppressed
  [Di Sep  7 00:24:05 2021] umip: someapp.exe[29231] ip:14064cdba sp:11b7c0: SIDT instruction cannot be used by applications.
  [Di Sep  7 00:24:05 2021] umip: someapp.exe[29231] ip:14064cdba sp:11b7c0: For now, expensive software emulation returns the result.
  ...
  [Di Sep  7 00:26:06 2021] umip_printk: 2227 callbacks suppressed
  [Di Sep  7 00:26:06 2021] umip: someapp.exe[29231] ip:14064cdba sp:11b940: SIDT instruction cannot be used by applications.

and users don't really care about that - they just want to play their
games in wine.

So convert those to debug loglevel - in case someone is still interested
in them, someone can boot with "debug" on the kernel cmdline.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
