[PATCH 2.6.22-rc5] libata: be less verbose about hpa

[Tejun Heo]

There's no reason to print out hpa related messages when HPA is not
active.  Kill the unconditional message and add a warning message
which is printed if HPA size is smaller than the current size.

I thought about doing KERN_DEBUG but we have printks for both hpa >
current and hpa < current, so if no message is printed hpa == current
and the current sectors is printed in the next line anyway, so I think
we can just drop it.

(Should it be a dprintk instead of vanish though ?)
