Before this commit lis3lv02d_get_pwron_wait() had a WARN_ONCE() to catch
a potential divide by 0. WARN macros should only be used to catch internal
kernel bugs and that is not the case here. We have been receiving a lot of
bug reports about kernel backtraces caused by this WARN.

The div value being checked comes from the lis3->odrs[] array. Which
is sized to be a power-of-2 matching the number of bits in lis3->odr_mask.

The only lis3 model where this array is not entirely filled with non zero
values. IOW the only model where we can hit the div == 0 check is the
3dc ("8 bits 3DC sensor") model:

int lis3_3dc_rates[16] = {0, 1, 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, 400, 1600, 5000};

Note the 0 value at index 0, according to the datasheet an odr index of 0
means "Power-down mode". HP typically uses a lis3 accelerometer for HDD
fall protection. What I believe is happening here is that on newer
HP devices, which only contain a SDD, the BIOS is leaving the lis3 device
powered-down since it is not used for HDD fall protection.

Note that the lis3_3dc_rates array initializer only specifies 10 values,
which matches the datasheet. So it also contains 6 zero values at the end.

Replace the WARN with a normal check, which treats an odr index of 0
as power-down and uses a normal dev_err() to report the error in case
odr index point past the initialized part of the array.
