I think that we should use DP instead of DBG_ERR. How about this one:

diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnx2x/bnx2x_cmn.h b/drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnx2x/bnx2x_cmn.h
index 223bfee..70dc7bc 100644

 	if (!max_cfg) {
-		BNX2X_ERR("Illegal configuration detected for Max BW - "

 		max_cfg = 100;
 	}
 	return max_cfg;


Can you sing-off on somethign like this?

Thanks,
Eilon
