[PATCH] irq: Remove unnecessary warning with affinity_hint

[Seiichi Ikarashi]

Hi Thomas,

If you turn off a PCI device whose driver has set affinity_hint,
you will get warning message which does _not_ explain the reason
why it appeared from the user's point of view.

  # echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/slots/65/power

  Apr 28 20:29:39 localhost kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------
  Apr 28 20:29:39 localhost kernel: WARNING: at kernel/irq/manage.c:1002 __free_irq+0x22d/0x250() (Tainted: P           ---------------   )
  (snip)

Users will misunderstand some problem has happened
even though he or she succeeded to turn off the device.
I suppose this warning was originally for a debug purpose
for driver developers and has incidentally been left.

Just remove the warning is good and enough.
