nowaday it's pr_notice() ;), but even pr_warn() could fit (it will not
trigger a calltrace splat). I think such kind of change it's the right
thing to do.

Adding constraints on user_features change is not going to fly, as
syzkaller could e.g. change the esposed version across different
netlink ops.
