Not all host drivers are PCI drivers - like hisi_sas, which supports a
platform driver - so remove reference to "pcidev".

The debug level is also downgraded to KERN_ERR for the same message.

As a printk without a KERN_<LEVEL> is printed at whatever
CONFIG_MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT is set to (default: 4 and
rarely unchanged), this is effectively upgraded from a
KERN_WARNING to KERN_ERR.

ah, I thought that it was printed always.

So maybe I'll just leave as-is.
