This should have the same log level as the message below and/or its
corresponding SRAT message. CEDT mem blocks wouldn't be reported
otherwise only because a smaller (overlapping) entry was registered
before. That is why I used pr_info here.

I evaluated this.

SRAT shows this:

	pr_info("SRAT: Node %u PXM %u [mem %#010Lx-%#010Lx]%s%s\n",
		node, pxm,
		(unsigned long long) start, (unsigned long long) end - 1,
		hotpluggable ? " hotplug" : "",
		ma->flags & ACPI_SRAT_MEM_NON_VOLATILE ? " non-volatile" : "");

There is no direct mapping of SRAT memory affinity flags (acpi-6.5
spec, table 5.59) and something in the CFMWS entry (cxl-3.1, table
9-22). There is no "hotplug" flag and the "non-volatile" part would be
ambiguous, as some logic must be defined to handle the "volatile" and
"persistent" Window Restrictions. Since the CFMWS restrictions are not
used at all by the kernel my conclusion was to just dropped the flag
for the CEDT info.

Note there is a mapping defined for CDAT DSMAS and SRAT entries, see
CDAT 1.03 spec, Table 4.
