[PATCH] ioat/dca: Update DCA BIOS workarounds to use TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND

From: Alexander Duyck <hidden>
Date: 2013-03-21 20:57:05
Subsystem: dma generic offload engine subsystem, intel i/oat dma driver, the rest · Maintainers: Vinod Koul, Dave Jiang, Linus Torvalds

This change makes it so that the DCA workarounds for broken BIOSes will now
use WARN_TAINT_ONCE(1, TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND, ...) instead of just
printing a message via dev_err.  This is more appropriate since we are working
around a sever bug in the BIOS which is the intention of this call.
