ACPI / utils: Drop error messages from acpi_evaluate_reference()

rafaeljw · rafaeljw · commit c48cf1b9dd8f · 2014-12-12T22:51:01.000+01:00
Some of the error messages printed by acpi_evaluate_reference()
with the KERN_ERR priority should really be debug messages, but then
they would be redundant, because acpi_util_eval_error() is called
too at the same spots (except for one).

Drop the kernel messages from there entirely and leave the
acpi_util_eval_error() to handle the debug printing.  In one case,
replace the kernel message with a call to acpi_util_eval_error().
