Description

Using the Landscape Grasstype will generate log spam for the number of Landscape components being used or if using World Composition will generate a log warning for each tile used.

The warning indicates the following:
"Warning: Warning Mobility of Landscape_0 : HierarchicalInstancedStaticMeshComponent_220 has to be 'Movable' if you'd like to move."

The log is spammed each time when a level is streamed in and our with world composition or if you're using level streaming when you load/unload a level with blueprints.

This warning is a regression of behavior that was in 4.13.2. This warning shows in current release of 4.14 and latest internal builds.

Working:4.13.2 Binary Release CL-3172292
Broken: 4.14 Binary Release CL-3195953
Broken: 4.15 Dev-Rendering CL-3200358

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a Landscape in the Level (default settings work for 255 components)
2. Create a Landscape Grasstype material and assign a static mesh to it
3. Create a Material that uses the Landscape Grass type
4. Apply the Landscape Grasstype to the Landscape.
5. Open the Output log
6. PIE

Regression: Yes

Results: The output log gets spammed with the number of components that the landscape grasstype material is assigned to (so 255 with a default landscape setup) and anytime the landscape is streamed in or out the log is has the warning written out.
