>Why do you need this option?

Currently logging of register accesses is using (wrongly) the generic
driver debug option of PMD_DRV_LOG (which gets enabled if
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_BNX2X_DEBUG=y).
This floods the console due to excessive printing of register
reads/writes. So creating a new debug option in order to capture only the
register read/writes (if required) and also does not interfere with the
informational/user-level debug.

It was added for BSD as well in the subsequent patch ([PATCH 1/6] bnx2x:
FreeBSD enablement). Will include it in a single patch in v2 series.
