x86/mm: Do not warn about PCI BIOS W+X mappings
PCI BIOS requires the BIOS area 0x0A0000-0x0FFFFFF to be mapped W+X for various legacy reasons. When CONFIG_DEBUG_WX is enabled, this triggers the WX warning, but this is misleading because the mapping is required and is not a result of an accidental oversight. Prevent the full warning when PCI BIOS is enabled and the detected WX mapping is in the BIOS area. Just emit a pr_warn() which denotes the fact. This is partially duplicating the info which the PCI BIOS code emits when it maps the area as executable, but that info is not in the context of the WX checking output. Remove the extra %p printout in the WARN_ONCE() while at it. %pS is enough.
