Auto calibration is present from Tegra30 onward and looking into change=20
where autocalibration was added to sdhci driver somehow it was enabled=20
only for T30/T210/T186/T194.

tegra_sdhci_parse_pad_autocal_dt() was added when auto-calibration was=20
added to driver and I see this dt parse is being done irrespective of=20
NVQUIRK_HAS_PADCALIB quirk so even on platforms without auto cal enabled=20
in driver, these messages shows up.

This should be fixed in driver to allow=20
tegra_sdhci_parse_pad_autocal_dt() only when NVQUIRK_HAS_PADCALIB is set=20
to avoid dt parsing to happen on platforms that don't have auto cal enabled=
.
