If we're missing chips for some reason, we print a warning when configuring
the PCIe shared slot.

The warning doesn't really make it clear what "shared slot" is, and if it's
printed, it'll come right after a bunch of messages about NPU setup, so
let's clarify the message to explicitly mention PCI.

WELL PERSONALLY I THINK THAT THIS WOULD MAKE MORE SENSE IF YOU SAID
"SKIPPING DETECTION OF SHARED PCIE SLOT" AND POSSIBLY SAID SOMETHING
ABOUT MISSING A SECOND CHIP RATHER THAN "UNEXPECTED NUMBER OF CHIPS" I
MEAN REALLY, THE SYSTEM HAS TWO SOCKETS WHAT ELSE COULD IT POSSIBLY
BE????!

please fix, thank you

After much bikeshedding and procrastination on my part... I'm not sure
what would really be an improvement here.. but I AM GOING TO BIKESHED
THIS A BIT MORE.

going with this:
      "PLAT: Can't find second chip, "
      "skipping PCIe shared slot detection\n");
