firmware: change kernel read fail to dev_dbg()
When we now use the new kernel_read_file_from_path() we are reporting a failure when we iterate over all the paths possible for firmware. Before using kernel_read_file_from_path() we only reported a failure once we confirmed a file existed with filp_open() but failed with fw_read_file_contents(). With kernel_read_file_from_path() both are done for us and we obviously are now reporting too much information given that some optional paths will always fail and clutter the logs. fw_get_filesystem_firmware() already has a check for failure and uses an internal flag, FW_OPT_NO_WARN, but this does not let us capture other unxpected errors. This enables that as changed by Neil via commit: "firmware: Be a bit more verbose about direct firmware loading failure" Reported-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Cc: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Cc: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Cc: Mimi Zohar <zohar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Luis R.
