| Default behavior for any CHECK CONDITION excepting a few special cases is
| to print out certain parts of the sense buffer and the CDB. Default
| behavior should be to print nothing and let the upper layers or
| applications decide what to do about these. The same information is
| already available by setting the appropriate bits of the
| scsi_logging_level kernel parameter or via
| /proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level.

Makes sense.

Few lines further down in the same function, there is another dev_warn() for SCSI errors.

/* Problem was not a check condition
* Pass it up to the upper layers...
*/
if (ei->ScsiStatus) {
dev_warn(&h->pdev->dev, "cp %p has status 0x%x "
"Sense: 0x%x, ASC: 0x%x, ASCQ: 0x%x, "


I am wondering whether it make sense to make the same change here as well as. This will suppress logging for other SCSI status, for example BUSY, TASK SET FULL, etc.
