[PATCH v4 3/3] net/txgbe: fix FDIR error handling on flow create

On failure, txgbe_flow_create() calls rte_flow_error_set(error, -ret),
so ret must be a negative errno. The FDIR flex offset mismatch path
leaves ret at 0, and the application sees errno 0. The global mask
memcmp path stores memcmp's return value in ret, which is not an
errno. Set -EINVAL on both paths.
Reject a mask-only FDIR rule before allocating the software object or
programming the global input mask, so a failed create cannot leave the
mask committed.
