    bnx2x: Don't notify about scratchpad parities · ad6afbe9

    The scratchpad is a shared block between all functions of a given device.
    Due to HW limitations, we can't properly close its parity notifications
    to all functions on legal flows.
    E.g., it's possible that while taking a register dump from one function
    a parity error would be triggered on other functions.
    
    Today driver doesn't consider this parity as a 'real' parity unless its
    being accompanied by additional indications [which would happen in a real
    parity scenario]; But it does print notifications for such events in the
    system logs.
    
    This eliminates such prints - in case of real parities driver would have
    additional indications; But if this is the only signal user will not even
    see a parity being logged in the system.
