From 2b2426a760764017cb53ffae128c87b7808dcf11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Carolyn Wyborny Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2015 19:44:35 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] i40e: Update error messaging This patch fixes an issue where adminq init failures always provided a message that NVM was newer than expected. This is not always the case for init_adminq failures. Without this patch, if adminq init fails for any reason, newer NVM message would be given. This problem is fixed by adding a check for that specific error condition and a different hopefully helpful message otherwise.
