Hi,

I think this patch could do with a little more explanation.
It's not clear to me, at least: what the difference is between
HWRM_FUNC_QCFG and HWRM_FUNC_CFG; and why only one of
the instances added by the cited patch needs updating.

HWRM_FUNC_CFG is used to reserve resources, whereas HWRM_FUNC_QCFG is intended
for querying resource information from the firmware.
Since __bnge_hwrm_reserve_pf_rings() reserves resources for a specific
PF, the command type
should be HWRM_FUNC_CFG.
However, HWRM_FUNC_QCFG was mistakenly used instead.
Does it clarify?

Thanks,
Vikas

Yes, please add this to the commit message.

Also please improve the subject. Something like (just a guess):

	bnge: fix reserving resources from FW

"fix typo" sounds like you're fixing spelling in a comment, it's not at
all informative :/
