While you are interested on/off this specific warning, your change will
cause "to hide" all syndromes as it is unlikely that anyone runs in
production with debug prints.

- mlx5_ib_warn(dev, "dump error cqe\n");
+ mlx5_ib_dbg(dev, "dump error cqe\n");

Something like this will do the trick without interrupting to the others.
