Yuanyuan Zhong already pointed out a situation where the commands
supported portion of the log page could be different.  When upgrading
the subsystem, some controllers may be upgraded sooner than others.
The upgrade could support new commands.

However, I would be surprised if the effects would be different for
currently supported commands, unless a controller was not reporting
effects before and starts reporting them.

Sincerely,
Randy Jennings
