Subject[PATCH 2.4] PCI devices with no PCI_CACHE_LINE_SIZE implemented
Marcelo, below is a patch to lower the severity of this printk to
KERN_DEBUG, as there are devices which (properly) don't implement the
PCI_CACHE_LINE_SIZE register, and it's not a bug, so don't print at a
WARNING level. GregKH accepted the equivalent patch for 2.6.

Thanks,
Matt
