[PATCH][next] octeontx2-pf: Fix assigned error return value that is never used

From: Colin King <hidden>

Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml
Subsystem: marvell octeontx2 physical function driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Sunil Goutham, Geetha sowjanya, Ratheesh Kannoth, Subbaraya Sundeep, Bharat Bhushan, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Colin Ian King <redacted>

Currently when the call to otx2_mbox_alloc_msg_cgx_mac_addr_update fails
the error return variable rc is being assigned -ENOMEM and does not
return early. rc is then re-assigned and the error case is not handled
correctly. Fix this by returning -ENOMEM rather than assigning rc.

Addresses-Coverity: ("Unused value")
Fixes: 79d2be385e9e ("octeontx2-pf: offload DMAC filters to CGX/RPM block")
