Subject: [PATCH 4.9 35/59] net/mlx5e: Remove WARN_ONCE from adaptive moderation code

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Gil Rockah <gilr@...lanox.com>


[ Upstream commit 0bbcc0a8fc394d01988fe0263ccf7fddb77a12c3 ]

When trying to do interface down or changing interface configuration
under heavy traffic, some of the adaptive moderation corner cases can
occur and leave a WARN_ONCE call trace in the kernel log.

Those WARN_ONCE are meant for debug only, and should have been inserted
only under debug. We avoid such call traces by removing those WARN_ONCE.

Fixes: cb3c7fd4f839 ("net/mlx5e: Support adaptive RX coalescing")
