After reviewed again, I think it's a not critical error here.
Even the current handler fails to get VA from efi_pa_va_lookup,
the next handler still have a chance to get VA successfully.
Block the procedure is overkill.
I would like to use pr_warn because pr_info may not be enough IMV.
How do you think!?
Thanks
