The tracing capabilities for the speaker protection fw enabled via

protection FW") are not be available on all platforms, such as the
Valve's Steam Deck which is based on the Halo Core DSP.

As a consequence, whenever the firmware is loaded, a rather misleading
'Failed to parse legacy: -19' error message is written to the kernel
ring buffer:

Update wm_adsp_buffer_init() to *not* report the ENODEV error when the
firmware type is WM_ADSP_FW_SPK_PROT.

Fixing this for a single firmware probably doesn't really make
the most sense, if we are treating buffers as optional these days
I guess really the best solution would be to make this either an
info and slightly rephrase the message or make it a dbg message.

Indeed, I have just submitted v2 for a more generic handling of the issue:
