firmware: change kernel read fail to dev_dbg()
When we now use the new kernel_read_file_from_path() we
are reporting a failure when we iterate over all the paths
possible for firmware. Before using kernel_read_file_from_path()
we only reported a failure once we confirmed a file existed
with filp_open() but failed with fw_read_file_contents().
With kernel_read_file_from_path() both are done for us and
we obviously are now reporting too much information given that
some optional paths will always fail and clutter the logs.
fw_get_filesystem_firmware() already has a check for failure
and uses an internal flag, FW_OPT_NO_WARN, but this does not
let us capture other unxpected errors. This enables that
as changed by Neil via commit:
"firmware: Be a bit more verbose about direct firmware loading failure"
