[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH net v4] i40e: Fix for displaying message regarding NVM version When loading the i40e driver, it prints a message like: 'The driver for the device detected a newer version of the NVM image v1.x than expected v1.y. Please install the most recent version of the network driver.' This is misleading as the driver is working as expected.

[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH net v4] i40e: Fix for displaying message regarding NVM version When loading the i40e driver, it prints a message like: 'The driver for the device detected a newer version of the NVM image v1.x than expected v1.y. Please install the most recent version of the network driver.' This is misleading as the driver is working as expected.

[Mateusz Palczewski]

Fix that by removing the second part of message and changing it from
dev_info to dev_dgb.

Fixes: 4fb29bddb ("i40e: The driver now prints the API version in error message")
