    Fnic Ctlr Path Trace utility is a tracing functionality built directly into fnic
    driver to trace the control path frames like discovery, FLOGI request/reply,
    PLOGI request/reply, link event etc.  It will be one trace file for all fnics.
    It will help us to debug and resolve the discovery and initialization related
    issues in more convenient way. This trace information includes time stamp,
    Host Number, Frame type, Frame Length and Frame. By default,64 pages are
    allocated but we can change the number of allocated pages by module parameter
    fnic_fc_trace_max_page. Each entry is of 256 byte and available entries are
    depends on allocated number of pages. We can turn on or off the fnic control
    path trace functionality by module paramter fc_trace_enable and/or reset the
    trace contain by module paramter fc_trace_clear.
