The SAVE command uses the async command interface over the PF. Upon a failure in the firmware -EREMOTEIO is returned. In that case call mlx5_cmd_out_err() to let it print the command failure details including the firmware syndrome. Note: The other commands in the driver use the sync command interface in a way that a firmware syndrome is printed upon an error inside mlx5_core.
