Subject: [net-next 08/11] ixgbe: use e_dev_warn instead of e_err for displaying warning

From: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@...el.com>

In this case, disabling DCB is not an error. We can still function, but
we just have to let the user know. In addition, since we call this
during probe before allocating our netdevice structure, we should use
e_dev_warn instead of e_warn.
