[PATCH] data: klog.json: Make FADT truncated warning into info message

Most platforms which firmware support ACPI 5.0 FADT, however the precise kernel
does not support ACPI version 5.0. the pre version 5.0 kernels will truncate the
 FADT back to ACPI 2.0 size and ignore the extra ACPI 5.0 settings.

fwts klog scanner will report it as high failure:
 klog: HIGH Kernel message: [    0.000000] ACPI Warning: FADT (revision 5) is longer than ACPI 2.0 version, truncating length 268 to 244 (20110623/tbfadt-288)

This failure was detected in bug report LP#1055591, LP#1061710, LP#1050679
