Subject: mpt3sas: Don't spam logs if logging level is 0
From: Johannes Thumshirn <jthumshirn@xxxxxxx>
commit 0d667f72b2a20bbac72bec0ab11467fc70bb0f1f upstream.
In _scsih_io_done() we test if the ioc->logging_level does _not_ have
the MPT_DEBUG_REPLY bit set and if it hasn't we print the debug
messages. This unfortunately is the wrong way around.
Note, the actual bug is older than af0094115 but this commit removed the
CONFIG_SCSI_MPT3SAS_LOGGING Kconfig option which hid the bug.
Fixes: af0094115 'mpt2sas, mpt3sas: Remove SCSI_MPTXSAS_LOGGING entry from Kconfig'
