[PATCH 3.16 146/204] ip6_gre: Reduce log level in ip6gre_err() to debug

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Thu Dec 28 2017 - 12:32:22 EST


3.16.52-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Matt Bennett <matt.bennett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit a46496ce38eeb401344d5623c1960dbf2f1769be upstream.

Currently error log messages in ip6gre_err are printed at 'warn'
level. This is different to most other tunnel types which don't
print any messages. These log messages don't provide any information
that couldn't be deduced with networking tools. Also it can be annoying
to have one end of the tunnel go down and have the logs fill with
pointless messages such as "Path to destination invalid or inactive!".

This patch reduces the log level of these messages to 'dbg' level to
bring the visible behaviour into line with other tunnel types.
