Don't show error if Acer WMI extensions are not found.

Currently acer-wmi.c complains in "error mode" when it can't find any hardware.
It is not silenced by the 'quiet' kernel parameter.

Other WMI drivers do not complain in "error mode" and _are_ silenced by
'quiet'.

The attached patch lowers the message level with which acer-wmi.c outputs it's
hardware not found message.
