net/mlx4_en: Fix race when setting the device MAC address
Remove unnecessary use of workqueue for the device MAC address setting flow, and fix a race when setting MAC address which was introduced by commit c07cb4b0 "net/mlx4_en: Manage hash of MAC addresses per port" The race happened when mlx4_en_replace_mac was being executed in parallel with a successive call to ndo_set_mac_address, e.g witn an A/B/A MAC setting configuration test, the third set fails. With this change we also properly report an error if set MAC fails. Signed-off-by: Yan Burman <yanb@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
