xfrm: lwtunnel: squelch kernel warning in case XFRM encap type is not available 

Ido reported that a kernel warning [1] can be triggered from
user space when the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_MODULES=y and
CONFIG_XFRM=n when adding an xfrm encap type route, e.g:

$ ip route add 198.51.100.0/24 dev dummy1 encap xfrm if_id 1
Error: lwt encapsulation type not supported.

The reason for the warning is that the LWT infrastructure has an
autoloading feature which is meant only for encap types that don't
use a net device,  which is not the case in xfrm encap.

Mute this warning for xfrm encap as there's no encap module to autoload
in this case.
