+Subject: [PATCH] qed: Don't log missing periodic stats by default
+
+Current implementation lacks the logic for providing management
+firmware with RDMA-related statistics; [much] worse than that -
+it logs such events by default to system logs.
+
+Since the statistics' gathering is done periodically, using sufficiently
+new management firmware the system logs would get filled with these
+unnecessary prints.
+
+For now, reduce the verbosity of the log so that it would not be
+logged by default.
+
+Fixes: 6c75424612a7 ("qed: Add support for NCSI statistics")
