Subject: [net-next 11/14] i40e: Lower some message levels

From: Mitch Williams <mitch.a.williams@...el.com>

These conditions can happen any time VFs are enabled or disabled and are
not really indicative of fatal problems unless they happen continuously.

Lower the log level so that people don't get scared.
