While testing recent discovery node rework, several items were seen that
could be done better with respect to the new trace event logic.
1) in the following msg:
kernel: lpfc 0000:44:00.0: start 35 end 35 cnt 0
If cnt is zero in the 1st message, there is no reason to display the
1st message, which is just giving start/end positioning.
Fix by not displaying message if cnt is 0.
2) If the driver is loaded with module log verbosity off, and later a
single NPIV host instance verbosity is enabled via sysfs, it enables
messages on all instances. This is due to the trace log verbosity checks
(lpfc_dmp_dbg) looking at the phba only. It should look at the phba and
the vport.
Fix by enabling a check on both phba and vport.
3) in the following messages:
2904 Firmware Dump Image Present on Adapter
2887 Reset Needed: Attempting Port Recovery...
These messages are not necessary for the trace event log, which is
primarily for discovery.
Fix by changing log level on these 2 messages to LOG_SLI.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
