[PATCH] PCI: use pr_warn_once for ACS parameter parse failure

From: Richard Cheng

Date: Thu Mar 12 2026 - 07:55:08 EST


When the ACS command line parameter cannot be parsed, the kernel skips
applying the requested ACS override. This indicates an invalid boot
parameter and should not be logged at informational level.

Use pr_warn_once() so the message is surfaced as a warning while still
avoiding repeated log spam during device enumeration.
