spi: spidev_test: Warn when the mode is not the requested mode
Print a warning if the device mode doesn't match the requested mode. The user doesn't enter the mode in hex so it isn't obvious when setting the mode succeeds that the mode isn't the requested mode. The kernel logs a message, it will be more visible if the test also prints a warning. I was testing --quad, which is unsupported, but doesn't cause the mode request to fail.
