There are several uses of hw_dbg in the code, producing no output. This patch implements it using dev_debug. Initially the intention was to implement it using netdev_dbg, analogously to what is done in ixgbe for instance. That approach was avoided due to some early usages of hw_dbg, like i40e_pf_reset, before the VSI structure initialization causing NULL pointer dereference during the driver probe if the debug messages were turned on as soon as the module is probed. v2: - Use dev_dbg instead of pr_debug, and take advantage of dev_name instead of crafting pretty much the same device name locally as suggested by Jakub Kicinski.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
