[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] i40evf: fix return value if command fails

Previously, if message is sent successfully, but no response is
received, function "i40evf_execute_vf_cmd" will return without error.
The root cause is value "err" is overwritten. This patch fixes it.

Fixes: ae19955e7c86 ("i40evf: support reporting PF reset")
