Subject: scsi: advansys.c: remove DMA build warning message

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]>

The driver was finally converted to the "new" DMA api in newer kernels, but here in 3.18, it never will happen, so just shut the warning up for now as obviously no one is going to do anything about it.
