[PATCH] drm/amd/powerplay: warn on smu interface version mismatch

[Quan, Evan]

I do not think this is a good idea.
As there is still some cases that version mismatch will cause unexpected  issues. And they will be hard to debug.
If this is for debug purpose only, I would suggest to keep this in your custom branch only.

Evan
