Re: block/ps3vram: Delete an error message for a failed memory allocation in ps3vram_cache_init()

Omit an extra message for a memory allocation failure in this function.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
NACK

When a user asks me for help I would certainly like to get 
'Could not allocate cache tags' as apposed to nothing,
Do you find the default allocation failure report insufficient?

since the return value of ps3vram_cache_init() is not checked.
Are there any more update candidates to consider for better exception handling?

Markus
