The current dev_warn messages for too many VLAN changes are confusing
and one place incorrectly reference "add" instead of "delete" VLANs
due to copy-paste errors.

- Use dev_info instead of dev_warn to lower the log level.
- Rephrase the message to: "Too many VLAN [add|delete] changes requested,
   splitting into multiple messages to PF".

thank you!
just two minor nits, but the messages are good already, so:

perhaps it is too much bikeshedding for such a change, sorry, but
I would rather remove the newline in the middle

nit: another thing that I would consider is to differentiate the messages (v1/v2 or A/B, or whatever) for different protocol versions


Thanks Przemek for the feedback.

I initially had the message on a single line, but checkpatch.pl reported: "WARNING: quoted string split across lines"

To avoid that warning, I added the "\n" and split the message.
I can drop the newline and suppress the warning if the maintainer
community prefers.
I just wanted to stay consistent with checkpatch recommendations.

good point, I can adjust the wording and add version tags (v1/v2)
now The messages currently look like this:

dev_info(&adapter->pdev->dev, "vvfl Too many VLAN add changes requested, "
         "splitting into multiple messages to PF\n");

dev_info(&adapter->pdev->dev, "vvfl_v2 Too many VLAN add changes requested, "
         "splitting into multiple messages to PF\n");

Thanks,
Alok
