Hi all,

looking at thunderx XDP support I noticed that nic->xdp_prog pointer in
nicvf_xdp_setup is not actually set to NULL if bpf_prog_add fails but it
is initialized with bpf_prog_add error code. xdp_prog pointer value is used in
the driver to verify if XDP is currently enabled.
Moreover nicvf_xdp_setup does not report to the userspace any error code in
case of failure.
I wrote the following patch to fix the reported issues. Please note I just
compiled it, not actually tested since I have no thunderx nic at the moment.

@Sunil: could you please give it a whirl? If it is ok I will post a formal
patch, thanks

Regards,
Lorenzo
