  perf/x86/uncore: Don't WARN_ON_ONCE() for a broken discovery table

    The kernel warning message is triggered, when SPR MCC is used.

    [ 17.945331] ------------[ cut here ]------------
    [ 17.946305] WARNING: CPU: 65 PID: 1 at
    arch/x86/events/intel/uncore_discovery.c:184

    It's caused by the broken discovery table of UPI.

    The discovery tables are from hardware. Except for dropping the broken
    information, there is nothing Linux can do. Using WARN_ON_ONCE() is
    overkilled.

    Use the pr_info() to replace WARN_ON_ONCE(), and specify what uncore unit
    is dropped and the reason.

[Fix]

Commit 5d515ee40cb57ea5331998f27df7946a69f14dc3 ('perf/x86/uncore: Don't WARN_ON_ONCE() for a broken discovery table')

[Test]

AWS tested

[Regression potential]

Low regression potential. Only the code that prints the warning has been changed.
