Symbol conflict in QLA drivers
Two different QLA drivers (qla2xxx and qla4xxx) both define a variable called:
extended_error_logging
This results in a namespace conflict when both drivers are compiled in (make allyesconfig for example).

We will push a patch to fix it in qla4xxx driver.

We will push a patch to fix it in qla4xxx driver.
Actually, if the symbol can't be made static, please fix both (say with a qla2/qla4 prefix or something) just so we don't get clashes with other areas of the kernel.

Make sense. We will fix both.
