Well this is 50% ok, you're right about the spelling mistake but
disabling the error message is a bad thing.

The error messages you've disabled signify packet corruption resulting
in the packet being dropped (CRC and Framing errors), you'd really want
to know about that sort of thing happening. This is hardly verbose error
reporting!

Please reverse that part of the commit. If you're seeing so many of
these errors that they're annoying you then you should find the cause,
not disable the error message.
