I would prefer print these warnings like this:

dev_warn(priv->device, "Number of Tx queues (%u) exceeds dma capability (%u)\n",
priv->plat->tx_queues_to_use, priv->dma_cap.number_tx_queues);

And number_tx_queues, number_rx_queues are u32, so %u would be better.

This print format change is quite minor. Probably not worth a re-roll since one
can always view DMA capabilities by reading a debugfs entry.
