Technically this is more than just a warning fix. The previous commit
61cadcf46cfd ("spi: rockchip: check requesting dma channel with
EPROBE_DEFER") could never have done what it was supposed to do
because dma_request_slave_channel() could never return EPROBE_DEFER.
...so really this makes the previous commit work properly.
