A frequently recieved report is the driver requests the optional Command Set Specific Identify Controller structure. Some controllers report this in their error log, which tiggers other warnings to user space monitoring the devices. These error entries are harmless and of questionable value to save in the log, but let's reduce their occurance by not resending the command if it previously failed. This will not prevent the errors on the initial module load, but will greatly reduce their occurance on any rescans and resumes from suspend.

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.
