When the number of requested VFs exceeds MAX_VFS_FOR_MAP_PE, the message prints that limit but labels it "Configurable VFs". Report the configurable VF limit and the PE mapping limit with separate error messages. Suggested-by: Christophe Leroy <chleroy@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jiangshan Yi <redacted> --- v2: - rework as suggested by Christophe Leroy: split the two limit checks into separate blocks, each with its own dev_err and error return arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/pci.c | 13 ++++++++----- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
