[PATCH v2 4/4] vfio_pci: spapr: Enable VFIO if EEH is not supported

The existing vfio_pci_open() fails if there is no EEH support for PCI.
This breaks POWER7's P5IOC2 PHB support which this patch brings back.

It is a warning because this should not normally happen on supported
configurations such as POWER8+IODA so we always want to see it in dmesg.
It is _once() as the message may be triggered by non-privileged userspace
and we do not want to pollute dmesg.
