The steering code needs to know slice/subslice counts and this information should be retrieved from the hwconfig table. However, earlier platforms don't have it, hence the KMD has a fallback path. Newer platforms really should have the entries and if they are missing that is a bug that needs to be fixed in the table. So update the complaint to be an error on newer platforms and remove it completely for older ones that we know are bad (but are not POR for the Xe driver anyway). Also, re-word the message a little to make it clearer what the issue is.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
