[PATCH] thermal: intel: powerclamp: Do not log an error on unsupported CPUs

[Breno Leitao <leitao@debian.org>]

powerclamp_probe() returns -ENODEV unless x86_match_cpu() finds an
Intel CPU with MWAIT, and logs "CPU does not support MWAIT" at KERN_ERR
when it does not.

As a result, a kernel with CONFIG_INTEL_POWERCLAMP=y logs this error on
every boot on a non-Intel CPU.

  # grep -m1 vendor_id /proc/cpuinfo
  vendor_id	: AuthenticAMD
  # grep -m1 -o -w monitor /proc/cpuinfo
  monitor
  # dmesg -l err | grep intel_powerclamp:
  [    0.485728] intel_powerclamp: CPU does not support MWAIT

At KERN_ERR the line also gets past "quiet" and lands on the console,
and on kernel metrics.

Reduce it to debug, and also name both conditions in the message.
