    ibmvnic: Revise RX/TX queue error messages · 2d14d379

    During a device failover, there may be latency between the loss
    of the current backing device and a notification from firmware that
    a failover has occurred. This latency can result in a large amount of
    error printouts as firmware returns outgoing traffic with a generic
    error code. These are not necessarily errors in this case as the
    firmware is busy swapping in a new backing adapter and is not ready
    to send packets yet. This patch reclassifies those error codes as
    warnings with an explanation that a failover may be pending. All
    other return codes will be considered errors.
