send_login() does not check for the result of ibmvnic_send_crq() of the
login request. This results in the driver needlessly retrying the login
10 times even when CRQ is no longer active. Check the return code and
give up in case of errors in sending the CRQ.
The only time we want to retry is if we get a PARITALSUCCESS response
from the partner.

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.
