The NCSI driver has next to no logging at all, with some of the only useful
logs actually coming from the ftgmac100 driver as link up/down messages.
Add a great deal more logging to the NCSI driver, tracking channel state and
selection, link events, and so on. Patch 1 has no functional changes, and
Patch 2 sends a Get-Parameters command during configuration to sanity check the
current channel.
A form of this will go upstream (the log levels probably need some tweaking),
but this iteration is being sent to OpenBMC to assist people currently
debugging a few network issues in the ftgmac100/NCSI/Broadcom area.
v2:
Adjusted log levels (many down to KERN_DEBUG). Patch 2 is the source of most
of the noise, and can probably be skipped - for upstream I'd intend to include
it with a way to manually request that information rather than retrieve it on
every configuration.
