Description

All dpd dropshot requests are currently logged at the info level. With the interaction model between tfportd and dpd this makes for a very noisy log that's difficult to work with. We should consider demoting these messages to the debug level so looker -l info is easier to work with.

Research direction

Start by locating the dpd Dropshot request logging and reading how requests from tfportd are represented. Use looker -l info to observe the current noise, then verify that these messages no longer appear at info while remaining available at debug.
