Auto calibration is present from Tegra30 onward and looking into change
where autocalibration was added to sdhci driver somehow it was enabled
only for T30/T210/T186/T194.
tegra_sdhci_parse_pad_autocal_dt() was added when auto-calibration was
added to driver and I see this dt parse is being done irrespective of
NVQUIRK_HAS_PADCALIB quirk so even on platforms without auto cal enabled
in driver, these messages shows up.
This should be fixed in driver to allow
tegra_sdhci_parse_pad_autocal_dt() only when NVQUIRK_HAS_PADCALIB is set
to avoid dt parsing to happen on platforms that don't have auto cal enabled.
