The lack of an available DMA channel is very important regard the spi-pxa2xx performance. The transfer speed can be reduced more than 50%. So it is very important to warn the user about this, without enabling the full SPI debug with CONFIG_SPI_DEBUG. Moreover, enabling the full SPI debug only to enable this specific debug message, the dmesg buffer fills quickly with a lot of repetitive information during the SPI data transfer. This cause the loss of all the first important messages written during the initialization.
