Subject: [PATCH 5.4 23/40] i40e: Fix firmware LLDP agent related warning

From: Arkadiusz Kubalewski <arkadiusz.kubalewski@...el.com>

[ Upstream commit 71d6fdba4b2d82fdd883fec31dee77fbcf59773a ]

Make warning meaningful for the user.

Previously the trace:
"Starting FW LLDP agent failed: error: I40E_ERR_ADMIN_QUEUE_ERROR, I40E_AQ_RC_EAGAIN"
was produced when user tried to start Firmware LLDP agent,
just after it was stopped with sequence:
ethtool --set-priv-flags <dev> disable-fw-lldp on
ethtool --set-priv-flags <dev> disable-fw-lldp off
(without any delay between the commands)
At that point the firmware is still processing stop command, the behavior
is expected.

Fixes: c1041d070437 ("i40e: Missing response checks in driver when starting/stopping FW LLDP")
