This patch fixes reading f/w LLDP agent status at DCB init time. It's done by removing direct NVM reading in i40e_update_dcb_config() and checking whether f/w LLDP agent is disabled via I40E_FLAG_DISABLE_FW_LLDP flag in i40e_init_pf_dcb(). The function i40e_update_dcb_config() in i40e_main.c is a temporary solution which will be later renamed to i40e_init_dcb() in the i40e_dcb module. Also logging was extended to make visible if f/w LLDP agent is running or not and always log a message when DCB was not initialized. Without this patch for new f/w versions f/w LLDP agent status was always read from NVM as disabled and DCB initialization failed without clear reason in logs.

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.
