Currently drc_pmem_qeury_stats() generates a dev_err in case
"Enable Performance Information Collection" feature is disabled from
HMC. The error is of the form below:

papr_scm ibm,persistent-memory:ibm,pmemory@44104001: Failed to query
	 performance stats, Err:-10

This error message confuses users as it implies a possible problem
with the nvdimm even though its due to a disabled feature.

So we fix this by explicitly handling the H_AUTHORITY error from the
H_SCM_PERFORMANCE_STATS hcall and generating a warning instead of an
error, saying that "Performance stats in-accessible".

Fixes: 2d02bf835e57('powerpc/papr_scm: Fetch nvdimm performance stats from PHYP')
