ACPI: PRM: Reduce unnecessary printing to avoid user confusion
[ Upstream commit 3db5648c4d608b5483470efc1da9780b081242dd ] Commit 088984c8d54c ("ACPI: PRM: Find EFI_MEMORY_RUNTIME block for PRM handler and context") introduced non-essential printing "Failed to find VA for GUID: xxxx, PA: 0x0" which may confuse users to think that something wrong is going on while it is not the case. According to the PRM Spec Section 4.1.2 [1], both static data buffer address and ACPI parameter buffer address may be NULL if they are not needed, so there is no need to print out the "Failed to find VA ... " in those cases.
