Remove WARN_ON() from check if VSI is null in ice_reset_vf.
Add "VF is already removed\n" in dev_dbg().

This WARN_ON() is unnecessary and causes call trace, despite that
call trace, driver still works. There is no need for this warn
because this piece of code is responsible for disabling VF's Tx/Rx
queues when VF is disabled, but when VF is already removed there
is no need to do reset or disable queues.
