ena_trc_err() is being used in both control and datapath.

I agree with you that it would be great if we would use dynamic
logging for control path - I must talk with engineers responsible for
ena_com to raise that issue and, hopefully, it'll be possible to
adjust that in the future.
I suggest to postpone that kind of change for the next release, as
making ena_com changes is a bit time consuming.
